   There is a Blessed Well near the chapel in Littlecullenstown. It was blessed by a priest named Father O Sullivan. He blessed it in honour of St. Anthony and left it as his memorial. People came to him from all parts to be cured, so it was for this reason that he blessed the well; so that when he was gone the well could have the same effect on those who believed they could be cured by it. In the cemetery in Clongeen there is a well called St. Mogue's Well, and people go there with their ailments leaving little relics in honour of St. Mogue after them.
