- I know of one holy well in this district, it is in the western side of this and situated in the townland of Bawn. People visit it on Mondays and Fridays for 3 weeks and rounds are performed at tit. There is a no story connected with holy well. St. Patrick came and blessed this well after his visit to (Ireland) Balincurry. People have had warts cured there. Invalids do not bring home water but rub it to the affected parts. The townland of Bawn is in the parish of Drumlish.
