    The Well is an ancient site of pilgrimage with legends of Saint Patrick. The waters of the well are said to cure any ailment.

    Saint Patrick founded Ardtole Church which can be seen on the horizon. In the next field at low tide Saint Patrick's Road becomes visible. This was to be his route to the Isle of Man but when a red haired woman crossed his path he seen it as a bad omen and didn't make the journey.
