  2. A Holy Well

    Share Share Post
    There is a holy well situated in the field behind the old Forth in Clones. It is called Saint Tiernach's well. It is now repaired very nicely. It is said that if a person is travelling to any foreign country he should take with him a bottle of this water from the well. If he does so it is said that he will return safely.
