Toberbreedia

Ó Danachair (1955, 207) recorded the following details about this holy well; 'Toberbreedia on 1841 map. A small spring in an open field, with some old whitethorn trees. The rounds path is marked by five stones. Rounds are still made, but not often. Formerly much visited, especially on 1st February. Widely known as the "Chincough Well" and said to cure whooping cough in children. The alternative cures were: water was taken from the well to the patient; moss from the well was boiled in milk and the milk drunk; the patient was brought to the well and drank the water there. Legends: A fowler washed his dog in the well and it moved. A treasure buried at the well is guarded by a phantom bull'.
