What is recorded here
Toberelleen is a holy well in County Galway, Ireland. It is a ritual site where clean water still touches the earth. People may have drunk from it, washed wounds or left small gifts beside the pond. The name sounds like a hidden chamber, as if the land kept a secret and the water remembered it.
