  2. A holy well called St. Laughteen's Well is in Mr. Con Burn's land, Garryadeen, Grenagh. People visit this well on St. John's Eve and all sorts of prayers are said there.
    This well was first in the parish of Donoughmore. In that Parish the water was abused by the people then it removed to where it is now.
    St. Laughteen is connected with it.
    Many people were cured at this well and it is recommended for all sorts of diseases.
