The Church well (Kilpatrick)
The church well is in Kilpatrick near Clough in the county of Kilkenny. This is a little well with a stone over it. There are two seats cut out in the earth. The people say that Saint Patrick and his followers cut them out. There was an old churchyard there hundreds of years ago and bones are continually coming up from underneath but they never come to the top of the well.
