Galway Holy Well Audit

Have you a holy well in your area?  Is there an annual pattern day at the well? Do you know any stories about the well? We want to collect as much information as we can about all aspects of the holy wells of our County. We would love if you would join us and share your knowledge! Please send your stories, experiences and photos to galwayholywells@gmail.com. This project is funded by Galway County Council & The Heritage Council.
