What is recorded here

Three holy wells dedicated to St. Patrick and St Paul depicted on the 1840 ed. OS 6-inch map. Ó Danachair (1955, 209) recorded the following details about these wells; ‘There are two holy wells, St Patrick's and St Paul's Wells, on the east side of Knocklong hill". OSL - One spring, lined with rough dry-stone, and some old masonry remain. No tradition seems to have survived'. This area is now covered with trees and vegetation making it impossible to verify the location of these holy wells. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 20 June 2019
