  1. Folklore - Holy Wells

    Share Share Post
    In the penal times there was a very holy well and the name of this well was "the lady's well". This well was in Timoleague. It was a very deep well and in this well there was a fish.
    And the water out of this well would cure any kind of a disease. So the poor people went to the well to be cured.
    And when they went to the well some of them were cured and some of them were not.
    And those who would not be cured would not see the fish.
