What is recorded here

Ó Danachair (1955, 209) recorded the following details about St Broney's Well; ‘Close to the ruin (LI039-012001-) called Kilbroney. The well is now dry and the stone work collapsing. Only a few old people have heard that it is a holy well. No tradition of devotions'. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 21 May 2019

St Broney's Well is associated with a local saint, possibly St Broney, whose name suggests a Christian heritage linked to early Irish monastic tradition. The well, once a site of pilgrimage, was believed to have healing properties, though specific cures or rituals connected to it are not well documented.
