  1. St Joseph's Blessed Well is situated about a mile and a half from Miltown Malbay.
    There are many stories told about the Blessed Well but this is one about the Blessed Tree.
    Up to recent years ago there were five grand ash trees on the left hand side of the Well.
    Outside the Well there stood one of these trees which was commonly known at the time as the Blessed Tree.
