The National Monuments Service's description
Marked on the 1839 and 1925 eds of the OS 6-inch map and described as Toberernan on both, in italic lettering on the former and gothic on the latter. It is situated on a slight S-facing slope and in an alcove on the W side of a small N-S road. This is a circular stone-lined well (diam. c. 0.5m), now overgrown and disused. There is no evidence that it was ever venerated.
