Tobernakilla, also known as "Tober na Cille Dheamhna," is traditionally associated with Saint Demone, a 7th-century Irish saint known for his ascetic practices and healing miracles. The well was historically visited for its supposed curative properties, particularly for eye ailments and general healing, with local folklore suggesting that water from the spring was especially potent when collected at dawn.
