• CO024-101 Ritual site - holy well
  Description

  In pasture, on NW edge of boggy area shown as pond on 1937 OS 6-inch map. Well barely visible due to overgrowth, no longer in holy use. Recorded by Grove White (1905-25, vol. 1, 140) as holy well '...called Tobernagleenagh. According to local tradition, a saint was passing through Kilmaclenine (about 2 miles to the north), and being thirsty he asked for a drink of water from a well there. It was refused. He took up the well in the tail of his gown and dropped it at Ballykitt. The water is considered a cure for all diseases. The people pay rounds here.'
