Struell Wells - Downpatrick - Co.Down
Struell Wells was built around a stream flowing through a secluded valley. It was a popular place of pilgrimage from the 1600s until the 1840s. The waters were believed to have curative powers and the site has a ruined church, two bath-houses (one for men, one for women) and two roofed wells, all fed by the stream.
The wells date from before the time of Saint Patrick, and even today are used for people seeking cures.

The earliest written reference to the wells is in 1306, but none of the surviving buildings is earlier than about 1600.
