• DU013-009 Ritual site - holy well
  Description

  Annotated 'Lady's Well' on the 1837 ed. OSi 6-inch map, Mulhuddart church ruins (DU013-010001-) and graveyard (DU013-010001-) 270m to NNE. Dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. This vaulted well-house stands by the roadside which marks the townland boundary with Buzzardstown to the E. The well is approached by stone steps. On the roof are two finials, one a stone carved with a cross in relief and the other a stone niche with an inscription. It is still venerated. Formerly a pattern day was held on the 8th of September (Ó Danachair 1958-60, 76; Daly 1957, 19). The water is traditionally reputed to cure sprains, cuts, bruises and rheumatism. The well is recognised by Fingal County Council as a 'County Geological Site' (Parkes 2012, 52). Around 1740 Isaac Butler wrote the following description of this holy well in his account of 'A Journey from Dublin to the Shores of Lough Derg'; 'About midway, ascending to ye church, is an excellent well. It is carefully walled in, and several large trees about it. Here, on the 8th September, a great pattern is kept with a vast concourse of all sexes and ages from many miles, upwards of eighty tents being pitched here, furnished with all kinds of liquors and provisions for ye refreshment of ye company'. The vaulted structure was described in 1897 as; 'On the north is a square-headed opening, which gives light to the interior of the back, and over it is a niche and cross cut in relief on a square block of stone; in the south gable there is also a niche' (Anon. 1897, 448). Folklore collected from Mulhuddart School recorded the following traditions about 'The Lady Well'; 'Situated about a half mile north of the village and about three hundred yards south of the old church. Over the well there is an erection made of stone in shape of a little chapel. There are several cures in the waters of the well. Rheumatism and sore eyes are the principal sicknesses which is cured with the waters. I have been in conversation with a man who has been cured from blindness with the water. He visited the well nine times each being on the first friday of the month. At each visit he recited the rosary and washed his eyes with the water. During the time his sight was gradually restored to him. When he had completed his visits he could see again. This man had great belief in the waters of the well. When he had been cured he placed a statue of Our Blessed lady and a small oil lamp there. Another man named Mr Lyster of Stoneybatter was cured with the waters. He was suffering from Rheumatism. He took home some water from the well and rubbed a portion of the water on the aching spot one a day. During the time he prayed to the Blessed Virgin. After some time the Rheumatism was cured. On some sunday evenings people come and visit the well. One sunday evening Mr Delaney and his family paid a visit to the well. There was broken glass strewn around the well and the visitors walked around the well barefooted. During the rounds they were reciting the rosary. Sometimes one of them would kneel in front of the well for a time. It is said that Miss Ellen Carr told Mr Delaney to do this and it would cure his pains which he frequently suffered from. Some people come to the well and drink the waters for the good of their health. Long ago there was a pattern held at the well. Priests and monks used to visit the well on Pattern Day and devotions were held. Dealers erected camp in the fields around the well land sold drink and refreshments there. Owing to the conduct carried on there by the people the pattern had to be stopped. The late Mr Byrne of Powerstown returning home one night looked behind him after he had passed the well. On the centre of the road right opposite the well he saw a vision kneeling down. He turned round and travelled home as fast as he could. There is a legend concerning the well. It is said that the Blessed Well once stood on the opposite side of the road to where it is now. But there were some men returning from work and filled it in. Immediately they had finished the work the well sprung up on the opposite side of the road. Prayer on Lady Well. The prayer inscribed on the Lady Well is as follows; O Blessed Mother and Ever Virgin Glorious Queen of the World Make Into mo mon For ------- Vouch safe that I may Praise Thee O Sacred Virgin O Bl in for me [?] A gain thy Ever. On the top of the stone section there is a stone water font and the prayer is inscribed on each side of the little erection. Some of the stone has been weather-beaten and the part of the prayer is difficult to read' (The Schools’ Collection, Volume 0790, Pages 68-71; https://www.duchas.ie/en/cbes/4498605/4385353).
