- St. Patrick's Well.There is a holy well in Greevy's land in Lankill. It is said it was St. Patrick that blessed that well when he was going to the Reek. There is the track of his knees there on a stone. It is a very small well and there is a very white stone left in the track of the kneeIt is said that any one that prays specially to St. Patrick when they get sick and if they get that stone they will get cured quickly. There is a big stone tere and there is Ogham writing on it. I heard this from Mr. John O Malley.
