What is recorded here

Situated on a steep W-facing slope of the N-S valley of the Ballyristeen stream, with the stream c. 100m to the W. The well was known as O'Bric's Well (Power 1896, 200) and it is located c. 400m SSE of Monksland church (WA024-036001-) in Ballynagigla. The well has been modernised with a concrete surround and roof and there is no evidence of veneration, but it is known locally to have had seven cures. Compiled by: Michael Moore.
