Kilvoydan Holy Well, Kilvoydan South
This holy well is located at the northern end of a large field of improved grasslands. The well is at the field boundary. Some church ruins, an early Christian enclosure and a cillín are located a couple of hundred metres south of the well, in same field. A small stream flows close by the well. The well was dry at the time of the research visit and was also recorded to be dry by T.J Westropp in the late 19th/early 20th century. Tom Coffey suggests in his local history, ‘The Parish of Inchicronan (Crusheen)’, 1993, that a minor amount of dredging would fill the well with water again...
