Linked to St. Stephen, St. Brigid, and St. Eugene, these holy wells are associated with various traditional cures and rituals, including healing, protection, and fertility. Each saint is venerated in Irish Christian folklore, with St. Brigid particularly revered for her connection to water and women's health.
