  1. Our Holy Wells

    Share Share Post
    There is a Holy Well in Terrerath and it is called St. Anne's Well. It cures a disease that horses get called Pharacy. Father Clancy blessed that well and when he was blessing it he said that the blessed water would cure Pharasy which no other water would cure. There is a tree growing over it and it is always green. It is by the side of the road near Terrerath.
