This is a natural spring enclosed within a railing and embellished with a monument to St Patrick, murals and a grotto. A stone-lined bath in the front may have been built in the 1760's when the well was developed as a spa (Daly 1957, 20; Ó Danachair 1958, 76). This was a station well according to the Ordnance Survey Name Books. The waters were thought to cure sore eyes and inveterate ulcers. Still venerated. Daly (1957, 20) recorded the following details about this well; 'Near Finglas village was another St. Patrick's well. A short time prior to 176o a stone arch was built over it, on account of cures which it had effected and for many years people visited there for the curing of sore eyes and inveterate ulcers. Patients applied rags dipped in the water to the affected part as well as drinking some of the water'.

Named on the 1st edition OS 6-inch map (1837) as 'Cardiff castle in ruins'. The OS 6-inch map shows an L-shaped building N of the road. This area has since been developed. Not visible at ground level.

A manor established by Archbishop Comyn in 1181 appears to have been on the present site of the convent which on the 1st edition OS 6-inch map (1843) is called Springmount, later known as Fortwilliam. In 1228 Archbishop Luke established an episcopal residence on the site. During the period that Alexander de Bicknor held the See of Dublin 1317-1319, this residence became known as the Court. It was a substantial mansion. There are references to stone walls, leaden gutters, iron bars, kitchen, brewhouse and furnaces (Ball 1920, 85). The Civil survey (1654-6) mentions a 'stone house' at Oldcourt on the church farm at Finglas (Simington 1945, 140). Excavations in 1992 failed to reveal any traces of the site (O'Flanagan 1993, 27). Further excavations in 1995 revealed the walls of a rectangular, two-roomed structure (L 20m, Wth 4.5m) associated with 16th-17th century material. This has been interpreted as an out-building associated with Fortwilliam (Halpin 1996, 24-25).

The N section of 'King William's Rampart' forms a boundary wall to the present Vicarage garden and the S boundary of the car park. It runs in a NE-SW direction (L 80m, Wth 3.5-6m, H 1.5-3.5m). Both faces are revetted with stone walling. In the W end of the rampart is a vaulted chamber entered from a round-arched opening. The vault runs N-S (dims. L 3.7m, Wth 3.6m, H 2m. ). It is lit by slit opes. Between 1986 and 1994 excavations in the immediate vicinity of the site produced 13th-15th-century pottery and evidence for an E extension to the rampart (Cotter 1992, 16). This site may be interpreted as fortifications erected by the Duke of Ormonde in 1649 (Anon 1897, 452; Joyce 1912, 270-1). This S portion of 'King William's Rampart' lies S of Cappagh Road. A lane runs along the S face of the earthwork. It comprises a continuous section of flat-topped bank which takes a sharp bend (H 3m, Wth 3.2m, L 48m. ). The S face was formerly faced by a buttressed wall (Joyce 1902, 270). It is overgrown with ash and thorn. Traditionally associated with King William, who is said to have camped in Finglas after the Battle of the Boyne, 1690, (Anon 1897, 452). Investigations by OPW of the site uncovered 15th-century pottery which suggests that the ramparts may be the remains of a stockade built to protect the manorial estate founded by Archbishop Comyn in 1181. Test excavations in 1995 confirmed that the rampart continued along the N perimeter of the present site. Archaeological deposits with a date range of 14th-17th centuries were built up around it (Halpin 1995, 25).

Situated at the edge of a plateau with a valley to the E. This is a medieval parish church on the site of an earlier monastery associated with St Canice. The later church is of nave and chancel type with a vaulted porch entrance (dims. L 12.8m, Wth 7.25m). Built of coursed limestone masonry. The W gable of nave is heavily buttressed and contains a round segmental arched window with a circular window above. On W side of nave is a round arched window, partly blocked and a later pointed window inserted. The chancel is narrower than the nave and entered through a pointed arched opening. There is a sandstone piscina along the S wall and pointed arched aumbrey close by. The chancel was originally lit by a double-light cusped, ogee-headed window (L 7.6m, Wth 5.6m. ). The S aisle is entered through wide round arches with pillars. There is a blocked pointed doorway in S wall of S aisle (dims. L 13.2m, Wth 3.15m; see Stubbs 1916, 27-45; Anon 1987, 451-4). In the SE corner of the chancel are two 17th century graveslabs, one commemorating Richard Treswell d. 1672 (DU014-066015-) the other to the Ryves family dates from 1647 (DU014-066016-).

Since 1806 a high cross has stood inside the entrance to the graveyard on a square plinth with roll moulding. It originally stood N of the village at Watery Lane (Anon 1833, 84-5). It is a ringed granite cross (H 2.16m, Wth 1.55m, T 0.27m. ). The E face has two raised ribs forming the outer ring, with an outline of a cross in relief and a roundel in the centre (Harbison 1992, 90). Traces of decoration on the arms continue onto the shaft, the S side contains animal-like features under the arm and onto the shaft. The N side has extenuated S spirals and under the arm a diamond shape, the W face bears a cross and a ring in high relief .
