The National Monuments Service's description
A well was revealed during an archaeological excavation at Bank Place. It is stone-lined, roughly circular in plan (dims. 0.8m x 0.84m) and constructed of undressed limestone blocks, possibly earth bonded. The well shaft was excavated to 0.5m below the present ground surface (O'Donnell 2000, unpublished). There was no dating evidence for this well which may be pre-1700 in date.
