Tetunny Well

Described in 1946 as 'This is a hollow in a shelf of rock, filled by a small spring. It is on the south bank of the river, in the gorge above Cliff House, and close to Tetunny Graveyard (DG107-073001-). It is seldom visited now, but on the occasion of our visit there were a few strips of cloth tied to the bushes about the well, tokens of "rounds" paid there. The well is dedicated to St. Brighid. All the surroundings are entirely natural; there is no masonry or any artificial object there. The well is about twelve feet over the present level of the river; thus it will be completely covered by the new water level' (Corlett 2006, 67).
