What is recorded here
No visible water, no stone basin, no witness. Under the soil of Ballycronan Beg in County Antrim, a forgotten well waits for rain, memory or someone stubborn enough to dig. Holy water does not need a jar; it uses hunger, patience and the certainty that what is missing may still be alive.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as HOLY WELL (unlocated). Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
