  1. Holy Wells

    Share Share Post
    Among the wells we have in the country we have blessed wells, and people come from different parts to get cured of different diseases.
    There is a well in Kilranelagh and it is called Saint Brigids Well. People that have sores go to the well and bathe the sores in it and are cured.
    When the people are leaving the well they leave behind them things such as Medals, Rosary-beads, and Relics.
    There is a well in Dunlavin another in Kelsha and the other in Tournant.
