What is recorded here

Ó Danachair (1955, 208) recorded the following details about this holy well; 'Our Lady's Well. Not marked on maps. A strong flowing spring. Rounds were formerly made on Saturdays and on 15th August. The water cured sore eyes and other ailments. There are no devotions now. Legends: The well moved when profaned. The water will not boil. A fish which lived in the well was taken away by a priest (reason for this not known)'. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 03 July 2019
