Holy Well688 yd

Explorer Tom Holy Well in Gortnagane is basically a shallow depression now, which is a letdown. It used to be part of a May Day round, but now it’s just sitting there outside a cashel like an afterthought. Go back in winter, it's a different animal.

Explorer Tom Two families are feuding over this European Yew in County Kerry, purely because they can't agree on the view. It’s just a tree, but their pride is massive. Have a sandwich here and call it a heritage lunch.
