- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)This well was supposed to have been frequented in very early times by people who suffered from eye troubles. Its waters were supposed to heal the eyes by bathing them three times. This bathing had to be done at the well as it is supposed that the water when taken away in a bottle or other vessel lost its curative properties.
I have been told that it is now hard to locate the spot where the well was, because it was closed up by a man who owned the farm in which it was situate. There were so many callers from all over the country that they broke down his fences and did much damage by trampling his meadows.
Even at that the people still persisted in going there and even re-opened the well in spite of him. The well was left open after this because the man who closed it suffered for a time from sore eyes, and was, himself, cured of this complaint by the waters of the well. He never interfered with anybody who wished to visit the well after his sight had been restored.
The well is circular in shape, about a yard in diameter, and is built around with stones. It is situated about two miles from Baltinglass along the Tinoran road. It is at a short distance to the south(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
