What is recorded here

Ó Danachair (1955, 209) recorded the following details about St John the Baptist's Well; ‘This well no longer exists; it is said that it changed position when desecrated, and is now on the roadside and used as a pump, about 75 yards from its original site. "This is a holy well where the inhabitants perform or give rounds on all Good Fridays and Sunday mornings'. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 21 May 2019
