Architectural fragment

The National Monuments Service's description

Located in a wooded depression on a gentle N-facing slope. The holy well (WA029-023001-) was venerated in the 19th century (O'C. Redmond 1895, 155-6) and there is a record of a possible bullaun stone (WA029-023003-), and of a carved stone head built into the surrounding canopy (Buckley 1896, 214). A circular well with a canopy survives but the other features are not visible. (O'Keeffe 1994, 132)
