Toberone
Toberone is a spring, at a modelled elevation of 143 m. Knockanaffrin stands 755 m to the south, 19 miles off. The nearest named place is Crohane Castle, a historic site 0.4 miles away.
According to the literature, it is either dried up or where the big tree to the Southwest is, but on inspection, there was a patch of reeds or similar at the spot. Might have been a holy well at some point in time.
