  2. There is a well near my home and it is called Tubar n'Abhaic. I suppose a dwarf lived there some time ago and that is why it got that name. There is a bush growing at the side of the well. There is excellent water in it and I heard that it was tested one time and it was found to be the second best well in Ireland.
