    There is another well in a field belonging to Patrick Dalton of Kilree. It is called St Brigid’s Well. About three miles from Danes-fort there is a well near Sheestown. It is called St Fiacre’s and it is situated on the banks of the silvery Nore. There is a pattern held there every year. Rosary is said there by the people.
