Between the two villages is a little bridge leading to the popular and well known holy well and burial mound of St. Gobnait, whose feast day is celebrated on the 11th of February. Ballymakeera and Ballyvourney are both Irish speaking areas with students coming here during the summer months to learn the Irish language.
