Kilkeasy Holy Well

Kilkeasy Holy Well is a source of reputed healing water in a tree in Kilkeasy (old) graveyard said to cure warts and sore eyes.

The tree is classified by Pádraig Ó Dálaigh as a holy well and described as a sycamore, but it is actually a plane tree (Platanus). Local farmer and volunteer caretaker of the graveyard Damian Brennan estimates the age of the tree to be 400 years, and describes how the opening used to be wide enough for a hand and arm to fit in. As of June 2024, the opening is only about 4–5 cm wide. The opening was formed when a branch broke off the tree.

The crucifix hanging on the tree described in the Schools' Collection is no longer in place as of 2024.

At the foot of the tree to the North stands a memorial stone for Thomas Phelan who died in the nearby Battle of Carrickshock.
