Description
Wall-mounted limestone plaque, dated 1644, inscribed 'IHS Sundays Well 1644'.
Appraisal
This roughly-finished plaque may indicates the site of the holy well after which the area is named, and possibly dates to the inscribed year, 1644. The inscription is finely-executed with the cross embellishment providing further interest. A similar plaque appears in an engraving published in the early nineteenth century by William West of Cork.
