Local tradition says that as Saint Patrick was going to 'The Island' he got thirsty and he came upon a spring well. He drank out of it and then he blessed it.

There is a cure for toothache sore-heads and sore legs at this Holy Well.

When anyone takes away a bottle of the water it must be corked with rushes from the well-side.
An old rag or some such thing is supposed to be left at the Well after a visit."]]> 54.698941,-8.081152]]>
