St Declan's Well

Situated in a broad river basin, close to the source of a SE-NW stream, which is c. 200m to the S. It is known as Toor Well, and dedicated to St Declan, but it may also be known as Tobar na Bhféithíní - Well of the veins - or as Tobar Mháire na Féithe - the well of Mary of the Vein. Traditionally, it is thought to cure skin disorders, particularly ringworm. A pattern is held here on July 26th, and the veneration of the well seems to have been developed from the 1950s. An area of c. 0.1ha around the well, a concrete-lined, subrectangular well (dims. 1.4m E-W; 0.3-0.6m N-S; D 2.2m), has been developed to include a bath-house, a covered altar and a pulpit with statues and crosses.
