Make a pilgrimage to Saint Brigid’s Well in Ireland; things to do

Saint Brigid’s Well  

Beside Murphy’s pub, 5 min. from the Cliffs of Moher, in LISCANNOR. 

Regarded as a place of healing, the well at this pilgrimage site is in a little cave-like structure filled with offerings that include holy pictures, rosaries, medals, and similar items left by pilgrims.  Steps lead up to a cemetery with a large cross.  This cemetery is where Cornelius O’Brien, who built the tower at the Cliffs of Moher, is buried.
