    There is another Holy well in Rathcabin, about 7 or 8 miles on the north east side of Borrisokane. This well is known as "St Kiernan's Well" and up to 28 or 30 years ago many people used to go to St. Kiernan's to be cure of sore eyes. There are no accounts of of anyone having been cured in this well for the last 3 or 5 years. Rathcabin is situated in the Parish of Lorrah, Birr.
    I, Nancy Donaldson, Finnoe, Borrisokane, heard this from my father George Donaldson, Finnoe, Borrisokane. Co. Tipperary.
