Ó Danachair (1955, 205-6) recorded the following details about this holy well; ‘Rag Well on 1840 map. This is not a well proper, but a large bullaun, ten inches [0.25m) in diameter and five inches (0.12m) deep in a rock which protrudes from beneath the roots of a large oak. No devotions now, but known as a holy well. The water cures ailments, especially warts. Formerly called Tobar na gCeartach, (Rag well) from the number of rags hung on the tree. Said to be dedicated to Our Lady'. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 01 July 2019

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
