What is recorded here

Indicated is a small holy well on a south-facing slope beside a tributary of the Mulkear River in County Limerick. Concrete blocks no taller than a child’s waist hold back water that rises to the ground, marking an irregular basin barely larger than a kitchen table. People have called it St. Brigid’s for long enough to build a wall around it, yet the name still arrives wrapped in belief rather than proof. The well does not need grandeur; it gives up clean water on a quiet hillside and waits to be remembered.

Situated immediately E of a small road on a S facing slope in the valley of a small tributary of the Mulkear River. An irregular area (c. 2.6m N-S; 2.3m E-W) enclosed by a wall of concrete blocks (H 0.9m) is filled with water to ground level. In the National Museum of Ireland Topographical files, the site is referred to as 'a well, supposed to be holy and called St. Brigid's'. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 20 June 2013
