    there was a church in this place. There is a place called "Tobar Cármín". This place is beside the sea. Now it is just a little stream coming from underneath a little bank on the sea shore. This water that comes out underneath the bank is pure spring water. It is supposed that there was a well in that place one time. The tide came in and submerged the well. The spring id plain to be seen today. The spring is about two hundred yards away from the place where the church was.
