The National Monuments Service's description
Located in a low-lying marshy area at the N edge of Shansruhaun stream. A pump-house is built on top of a wall with a concrete-lined opening to the S and concrete lintels. According to a neighbouring landowner the site is known as 'Tobernataggart' but there is no known tradition of it being a holy well.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
