What is recorded here
Dressogagh hides an unlocated holy well, remembered only through a missing point rather than a visible basin. The uncertainty does not weaken the place; it suggests the water withdrew from human mapping. Perhaps the well refuses to be found because finding it would turn prayer into property.
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.
