    Station of Bunmore Well
    There is a station done at Bunmore Well once every year. The station is done on the fifteenth of August.
    The people go there in crowds to the Well and do a station. When the people go back they take off their shoes and wash their feet and hands and face in the Well. Then they go down on their knees and say seven Our Fathers seven hail Mary's and seven Holy Marys and the Creed.
