Niall McAuley Very likely date period
“At some point the well was opened again and by 1910 Grattan Flooded noted the old pilgrimage had been revived and the current wall surrounding the well was erected. The popularity of the pilgrimage is indicated by an add in the Irish Independent September 19th 1910 that noted a car service will to ferry pilgrims from Enniscorthy railway station to the well and back for a fee of 1s. 6d.”

I'm not convinced those are stones in the background.
O Mac said:
derangedlemur Have to agree. Fabric of some sort. Strange!

"Down through the years, many stories have been told of miraculous cures for all sorts of ailments and of how disabled or crippled pilgrims were able to leave behind them their sticks, crutches, bandages, etc ., after one or more visits." www.finnvalley.ie/places/doon/well.html

POINT OF INFORMATION Today Wednesday 31st January 2018 the NLI Flickr Photostream with all the research and information gathered will be archived. The Irish Web has been archived by the NLI over the past several years and this has led to the archiving of the photostream. Carol has been linking the information gathered on each shot to the catalogue and now the archiving will ensure that it is preserved for future reference for those who may wish to research!

Love this title too - "A map of lands and properties at Rosenallis Nutgrove Rinn and Shanbeg in the barony of Tinnahinch and Queens [Leix] County. Names of tenants & acreage of holdings shown." (1770-1840) Includes this little corner of the world - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000302394 Ed. Says Rosenallis was part of General Dunn's estate in 4/1/17 (1817?)
