- TOBAR CHAOIDHE:-ar an gCósta, 2 mhl den leith thíar de Cill-Chaoidhe
Compánach do Phádraig, Chaoidhe a tháinigh go dtí an áit seo. Chuaidh sé as áit sa deire go Cuíge Ulad agus fuair bás ar oileán ar Loc Cuain(From the Late John Purtill, Noted Historian of Kilkee)
TOBAR SHEANÁIN:-on the outskirts of Kilkee. Senan is supposed to have knelt on Duggerna Rocks and thrown a stone saying that a well would spring up wherever the stone fell. The alleged marks of his knees and one foot are still shown on the Rocks - perfectly shaped, round holes apparently formed from tidal action. The stone in question fell 1/2 mile away and is to be seen built into the wall surrounding the well. Mr Jim Purtill was instrumental in getting this done.
