What is recorded here
St John's Well is a recorded cave place at Poulacapple in County Clare. Its name suggests people once believed the water belonged to a saint or that it gave life back to those drinking it. The rock may hold a chamber, a dripping gallery or a narrow passage that no longer appears on modern maps. Whatever remains inside, the well still marks the edge where human imagination met Clare stone.
