St. Francis' Well lies at foot of rock cliff, to rear of houses on North Mall, within stone-built well house. Entrance has wooden panel with date of 1688 in iron numbers; second room to W partially cut out of rock. Fitzgerald, in 1896 (O Coindealbháin 1946, 161), describes well (diam. 5ft; D 2ft) as surrounded by path leading to crypt-like room with rock forming end wall; used as cure for sore eyes, consumption and other ailments. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
