Description

Turrasnadiha Well/Tobar na Croise: This well appears to have been filled in or diverted but the cross-slab KE045-085002- which stood over it is still in situ. The stone is .55m high and bears a Greek cross on its SSE face. The arms of the cross terminate with slightly bulbous depressions. A penannular circle surrounds the outer portion of each arm and with them forms a trifid motif. Turas na Duimhche was carried out at the site, on St. John's day, until at least 1960 (Ó Danachair, 71). It included a visit to Bun an Turais, a spot on the sea-cliffs about 600m to SE, and may also have included a visit to Com an Bhráthar, part of the sea-cliff about 350m S of the well (An Seabhac 1939, 196-7).
