  1. Holy Wells

    Share Share Post
    There is a holy well in the town land of Conary. It is situated in the corner of a field near Leesons house. It is surrounded by large stones. many people near get there water in it.
    I often heard it said that if any person was sick and if they could go to that well and drink one cup of water every day for three days they would be cured no matter what sickeness they had.
    Dec 10th 1937.
