Marked as 'Tobar na Solais' on the 1835 and 1912 'OS 6-inch' maps. Also known as St. 'Finan's Well' in the 19th century. According to legend the wells position moved overnight due to butchers polluting it by washing the viscera of animals in it and that lights were seen across the fields as it moved to where it is now. Its waters were believed to benefit those with sore eyes. (Ribton Garstin 1916, 100). The well was closed over at time of inspection by ASI in 1967 but a whitethorn tree was noted and a natural spring flowed into the Barnattin river.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
