    “There is a well in the parish of Abbeyfeale called Cillíneach well.”

    Share Share Post
    There is a well in the parish of Abbeyfeale called Cillíneach well. There the people in the month of May pray every Saturday. One Saturday a woman came said her prayers and washed her feet in the well. And on that account the well removed upwards about five or six perches and remained there nine or ten years, before it returned to its same place. And its name is "Tobar Muire" and there are crowds of people coming there since.
