Blessed Wells
There is a blessed well not far from my house Tolair Bridge and it is in John Morleys field who lives in Kildara. The well is beside a fence and over the well there are two ash trees growing.
Long ago the people went there performing stations at it.
It is called St.Bridgets well because Saint Bridget washed her feet in the water. It is not known that anyone was cured from any disease at that well. Some of the people brought home a bottle of water and others drank some of it and more people rubbed it of the effected part. There is also a blessed well down in Hollywell(continues on next page)- Collector
