Ó Danachair (1955, 217) recorded the following details about this holy well; "St Patrick's Well" on
1840 map. A small well, roughly lined with stone. Some trees and bushes grow around it. No devotions now, but formerly visited for the cure of coughs and colds. St Patrick's Day was a day of special devotion. Legends: The well moved when profaned. St Patrick blessed the well. A Protestant lady threw in some silver coins as an offering; an impious Catholic drained the well to get the money, which he spent on drink, but was struck dead as he left the tavern'.
