   While Mr. Sheehan was at work on the roads some years
   ago a lady with a foreign accent asked him to direct
   her to “Brigid’s Well”. She was born in Australia of Irish
   parents and had heard of the well; on visiting
   the country she had at her first opportunity set out to
   find it.
   The well at first was raised well above the
   surrounding fields – which are boggy – but it has sunk
   almost on a level with them. People no longer visit it in
   numbers but it is still pointed out to those who suffer
   from tooth ache.

   The Surfeit Well. A well in Rathrout on Mr. Teape’s farm. One day when Teapes were threshing they brought water from it to boil the potatoes. Though the pot hung over a big fire the water never boiled and could not be boiled. The family then built a stone pillar near the well. The water is said to cure surfeit. “After Christmas and Easter long ago” said Mr. Sheehan, “people visited the well in numbers; especially after Easter, when eating a dozen eggs was no great feat”!
