- II Patrickswell It is said that the trees near Patricks-well were never planted by man; and the remarkable thing about the trees is that the trees grew in the shape of a shamrock.One day a woman living in the neighbourhood went to the well for a barrel of water. She forgot to take a cover for the barrel with her and on her way home the water began to spill or leak out of the vessel.
