There's a Ffynnon yr Hebog in Coytrahen (Geology of the South Wales Coal Field VI: The Country Round Bridgend pp64, 113). The Hawk's Well in Yeats is apparently a real place in Sligo, Tobar Tullaghan.

There is a stream mentioned in the Liber Llandavensis recorded as Hebog. It is in the vicinty of Llanerthill (ST4304) and seems to be either the old name of the Olway Brook, or its tributary Pont-y-rhydan Brook.
