Recorded monuments

• RO040-017 Ritual site - holy well
  Description

  On a low-lying landscape, in a field on the E side of a NNW-SSE road. Traditionally this well appeared when a notorious landlord, George Ormsby, attempted to cure an injured dog at Tobernagreghta well (RO040-016----) c. 65m to the W, from whence it moved in disgust to this location (O'Flanagan 1931, vol. 1, 53). Described as a well, also known as Tober Nual, with a rag tree of ash where a pattern has held on 15th Aug. (IFC Schools' MSS. vol. 260, 1,2; vol. 1506, 166). The well is a rectangular concrete structure (dims 0.8m x 0.8m) and there is now no evidence of a rag tree or of veneration (Ryan 1997, 222). Archaeological monitoring (03E1576) in the vicinity failed to produce any related material (Morahan 2006b). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
