  1. Places
    Annie's Well At the side of this well there is supposed to be gold hidden. At certain times of the night there is a light seen. It is situated near Culleen Hall in Culleen. A white dog guards it.

  2. St John's Well At this place, about three feet from the well there are two flat stones and under these stones gold is supposed to be found. A few years ago men went digging for the gold but they got nothing. They only dug under one stone because the people said it was not right; when they were near a holy well.
