What is recorded here

The well is a feature in a narrow, landscaped public park along the S bank of the River Liffey. According to Fitzgerald (1899-1902, 317) the well, ‘ … [went] by the name of Tubber-molin … or St. Moling’s Well’, while Jackson (1979-80, 151) attributes it to St. Brigid and says a pattern was formerly held there on February 1st. A small spring well issues from beneath a modern limestone sculpture by Fr. Henry Flanagan OP. An adjoining plaque commemorates the reconstruction of the well and the unveiling of the sculpture in 1977. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 28 January 2013
