- There is a Holy Well situated in the townland of Drungora, Upper Lavey, Ballyjamesduff, County Cavan. The field in which the well is situated belongs to Mr Eamonn Smith.
This well is not now much visited. The water of the well is said to cure warts. Visitors, suffering from warts wash their hands in it and leave medals or coins as tokens. During the Penal Days it is said to have been used as a Tabernacle. A rock in close proximity to this well is said to have been a "Mass Rock".- Collector
