Indicated — Lugakeeran

Holy well

Why this matters

Lugakeeran Well is associated with a local tradition of healing, specifically for stomach pains. The presence of a whitethorn bush, often linked to sacred or protective sites in Irish folklore, may indicate its historical significance as a ritual or holy well.
