    There is a well about a mie from my house called St Biseach's well. It is siatuated in a big field called Ballynaacroigh and it is said that there is a cure for bleeding in it.
    This well is visited on Tuesdays and Fridays when you visit this well you have to leave a bit of your clothes on the bush over hanging the well.
