    was almost forgotten. It was covered over with briars until a few of us got together last summer, cleaned it up and started pilgrimages and ever since people have been visiting this Holy well. During the years it was forgotten a sick cow has known to visit the well. She drank the water and got well.
    This Holy well lies about a quarter of a mile from the ancient historic ruin of Parish church of Bohernakill graveyard.
