• WX025-018 Ritual site - holy well
  Description

  Described as ‘Toberpatrick’ in gothic script on the 1839 and 1924 eds of the OS 6-inch map. According to John O’Donovan writing c. 1840 rounds were performed at the well until c. 1820 (O’Flanagan 1933, vol. 2, 46). It is located in a shallow basin with a small SW-NE stream c. 15m to the N. It is described in the 1940s as a natural spring with a bush nearby with no sign of any arteficial construction or of veneration (SMR file). It is not visible now in reclaimed pasture.

• WX025-051 Well
  Description

  A sub-rectangular rock-cut well-shaft (dimc. 1.5m x 1.5m) was discovered in the main street of Clonroche in March 2003. The mouth of the well was lined with granite and it had been sealed beneath a granite slab. The well was explored to a depth of 8.4m, the bottom 3.8m with water. There is no local knowledge of the well, but there are newspaper references to it in the second half of the 19th century (MCDonald 2007).
