- There are two holy wells in the parish of Mullahoran one in Carnagh and the other in Glasscarrick. St. Patricks which is in a field of Phil Donohoe's cures a number of diseases if visited on St. Patricks day. The well in Glasscarrick is in a field of Paddy Byrne's and it cures warts if visited on Mondays Thursdays and Monday again.
