    Long ago there was a well in Tipperary called "The well of Ara"...

    Long ago there was a well in Tipperary called "The well of Ara" as the years past the name changed to "Tiobrad-Aránn" meaning Tipperary. Some people say that the well is behind the Post Office. But no one realy knows where it is.
