  1. In our field there is a rock. It is said that long ago St Patrick knelt on this rock when he was praying. In that side of the rock there is a small little well. This well is full of water all the year round.
    This water is able to cure warts. Many people who have warts go there for three morning and at the end of the third morning they see the warts withering.
