    II Near the shore, where the Railway Station was situated there was another holy well called Tobar An-Aon-Adharc. The Railway Company had the course of the stream altered for their own purposes and they also changed the site of the well. They then had it enclosed on three sides.
    III Many people make pilgrimages to the holy well of Rosserk south of Killala - particularly during the months of August and September.
