  1. Holy Wells

    Share Share Post
    There are four wells in our parish namely, St. Fannies well, St. Nicholas well, St Stephen's well.
    St. Thomas well is situated in a field named Curragh. There are three rounds made during the year at these wells and the Rosary is recited during every round.
    St Stephens well is noted for curing sprained limbs and sore eyes. People generally rub the effected places with the well water.
    There was a fish seen in St. Nicholas well about fifteen years ago. St Thomas well was interfered with ten years ago and their have been no water seen their since.
