Riverstown Kildangan. This district is situated about 2 miles west of Kildangan and has a kind of mansion. It was formerly in the possession of one Mr Ryder.
St Brigid's Well
In this farm there was a well known and St Brigids Well. It is now circular in shape about 16 ft in diameter and enclosed by a low wall about 2 ft high. The water is very clear and the well never goes dry.
It is said that Mr Ryder tried to close up the well by filling it with stones. Having filled he thought all was well. Next morning however the well had overflown to such an extent that his house some 50 yds away was being innundated with water.
He then took fright and had the well emptied of stones and put the little wall around it. There is a large wooden cross standing in the centre of the well but this was put there at a later period.
It is also said that St Brigid knelt in prayer on a stone beside the well and left the print of her knees in the stone. The stone marked is still there.
Patterns were held at this well years ago but have been discontinued no for years.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
