Dromnea Well

Small amount of water under rock on rugged slope. Does not seem to be in holy use. According to O'Donoghue (1986, 62) well also called Tober na n-Duanairidhe - well of the poets. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

Dromnea Well, also known as Tober na n-Duanairidhe or the Well of the Poets, is associated with literary tradition rather than a specific saint or healing practice. The name suggests a historical link to bards or poets, possibly reflecting a site of cultural or spiritual inspiration in early Irish tradition.
