  2. Tobar Dé hAoine
    This well is situated on late Sir Nugent Humble's Estate outside Dungarvan at Cloncoskraine.
    Very little is known of it However the name Friday's Well or Tobar Dé hAoine is supposed to be given it, owing to the fact that it was probably on a Friday, that some cure was obtained.
    Some state that in by gone days, 'The Rounds' were made only on Fridays, and the well was first blessed on a Friday.
