What is recorded here

Indicated as 'David's Well' in Gothic script on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map and on the 1899-1902 revision, though on the later map a pump house is also indicated at the location of the well. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 6 October 2021

Linked to Saint David, the well is traditionally associated with healing and pilgrimage, reflecting the widespread veneration of the Welsh patron saint in early Christian Ireland. The addition of a pump house in the early 20th century suggests continued local use, though its sacred character may have diminished over time.
