Stone with information, Dromore
The following text is included, "Near this spot for decades stood the village forge, a meeting place for the farming communities where many tail tales, were told. Directly above are the ruins of an ancient church which served many denominations over the centuries.
One hundred yards to the West is the Holy Well or "Eye-well" a small basin of water which seeps from the old church grounds. Tradition says that a man called" Robert Stephenson bathed the eyes of a horse with deteriorating eyesight. In the clear cold water and the horses eyesight improved. Since then the well has been used by those with eye problems and to this "day many people make a pilgrimage to the well to bathe their eyes in its mystical waters. It has been a custom for each user to leave a piece of cloth - a token of the visit.
This Shire Horse and working man was made by sculptor Harriet Mead using scrap steel plate and was commissioned by the local community group - Dromore 2000.
Erected in January 2007"
