- Between Blackrock and Dundalk, there is a spot, which is called Ladywell.
During the whole year, this is quite a dry spot, but on the night before August 15 at twelve o'clock midnight, a well springs up.
People who have pains or sore legs gather to this spot on that night and rub the effected part with the water, hoping to be cured. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
