    People from the district go every year to the Patten of Ballylanders on the 15th of August.
    It is a great parish feast there and they generally celebrate the day by a sports meeting of hurling or football match. the Patten lasts until the 23rd. The water of the well is a cure for all complaints, and crippled people and people with sore eyes and other various complaints go there.
