What is recorded here

Cornaveagh in County Mayo holds a holy well, a ritual site where clean water still touches the earth. People may have knelt at its edge, poured offerings into the dark, or drunk from the stream during hardship. The well remains a quiet marker of faith, patience and local memory.
