What is recorded here

Described as St. Bridget’s Well only on the 1924 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and located on a gentle NW-facing slope on the SE side of the River Sow basin. John O’Donovan writing c. 1840 records the name but says it had been disused for 20 years and the pattern was not remembered (O’Flanagan 1933, vol. 2, 222). There is no visible evidence of a well. Killisk church (WX027-025001-) is c. 350m to the S. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 18 July, 2012
