What is recorded here

Ladys Well is a holy spring in County Limerick where rounds are still made and rags are left as offerings. It bubbles inside a grove of old whitethorn trees, and its water is said to cure sore eyes. The well may have moved from Sunday's Well in the same field, defying attempts to boil it and revealing itself to a blind man before curing him.

Ó Danachair (1955, 208) recorded the following details about this holy well; 'Lady's Well on 1928 edition of 6-inch O.S. map, not on 1840 map. A clear bubbling spring in a grove of old whitethorn trees. Rounds are still made. The water cures sore eyes. Rags and small religious objects are left as offerings. Legends: The well moved from the place called "Sunday's Well" (LI056-026----) in the same field. The water will not boil. A blind man who was being led to another well recognised the presence of this well and was cured at it'. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 03 July 2019
