}}St. Cuan's Well is a holy well and National Monument located in County Galway, Ireland.[1]

Location

St. Cuan's Well is located 2.3 km (1.4 miles) northeast of Ahascragh, 4 km (2½ miles) west of the River Suck.[2]

History

Saint Cúan (died AD 752) was an Irish abbot. A pattern was held here on October 15. Local belief associated the water with miraculous cures and claimed that the water of the well could not be boiled.[3] There was formerly a rag tree beside the well.[1]

Description

The holy well is surrounded by a low wall. A cross slab is next to this enclosure.[4]
