What is recorded here

Holy well in Clonmore, County Kilkenny: a ritual water place, likely old, where people may have prayed, healed or marked time with the living current. The field around it may have held footsteps, offerings and quiet hope. Rain may have filled it, memory may have deepened it, and the basin may have returned clean water back to the world.
