- There is a well in a farm at Andfert. People say it appeared any field in one night. There was not a sign of it the day before. It is called "Weather's Well", because two weathers jumped out of it and disappeared. Stones for an altar appeared with the well. Many people believe that if they went to the well they would be cured of whatever disease they had. Some people go there to be cured but nobody heard whether they were cured are not.
