  1. There is only one holy well in the parish. It is near a spot called Ard Ronan in Dromiskin. The people do not visit it on a certain day that I heard of.
    there are no round performed or prayers said. there is no story told about it that I know of. the saint mentioned in connection with it is Ronan. No people have been cured there. there are no cures I can give an account of. There are no special diseases cured at the well.
    I got this information from my mother.
