Toberintaggart — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

No surface remains visible of the site Tobber na Saggart (the priest's well) was described by Hickson (1885-6, 499) as; 'a well called Tobber na Saggart (i.e. the priest's well), on a townland called Ballintobeenig'. Ó Danachair (1958, 163) was doubtful about this site and he recorded that; 'no tradition seems to have survived'. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 29 April 2022

Toberintaggart, also known as Tobber na Saggart, is traditionally associated with a priestly figure, likely a local early Christian saint or cleric, as suggested by the name "the priest's well." Holy wells named after priests or saints were often sites of pilgrimage and healing rituals in Ireland, though specific cures or folklore linked to this well are not recorded.
