  1. Blessed Wells

    Share Share Post
    There is a blessed well in Ballyglass. It is said that when St. Patrick was coming to the reek he rested at it and blessed it.
    There is a well in Cualmean and it is blessed, there is a pot of gold under it no one can get it except the person that will dream of it three times. You should not tell any anybody until you would dream of it three times. It is said that a fairy is minding it day and night.
