Marked similarly on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on flat low-lying ground c. 200m NNW of Bridgecartron church (RO003-020001-). Rectangular depression (dims. 2m x 2m; D 0.5m) which is now dry and with no evidence of, or traditions of, veneration. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
Linked to St. Bride (Brigid), the well was traditionally associated with healing and fertility, reflecting the saint's widespread veneration in early Irish Christianity. The site's rectangular depression suggests possible structural or ritual use, though it is now dry.
