    Share Share Post
    There is a cave near where I live, and the name of it is "Dermot's bed". It is situated in the townland of Bunnadubber. Dermot only spend one night in the cave with his sweetheart. There is a well near the cave that night Dermot got thirsty and they had no vessel to get water. The girl went to the well and she brought him a drink in the palms of her hands and it is since called "Tobar na mbos.
