    Saint Colum Cille is supposed to have visited this well also. In the Penal times when the priests were hunted they used to say mass at this place. There is one day of the year dedicated to Our Lady of this Well, that is the last Sunday of July "Garland Sunday". There is a cure at this well for mental people and so it got its name "Tobernaulth"
