  2. Holy Wells - Tobar na bhFionn

    Share Share Post
    Tobar na bhFionn is a well situated in the parish of Cordal. People visit for the purpose of paying rounds to cure their eyesight. There is an old story told that a trout is seen there and if when visiting it you are lucky enough to see this trout your sight will be cured. Some say Our Lady was seen there in days gone by, and that is why it is called Tobar na bhFionn.
