    a pation(?) healed there one time ago. People used to perform stations around the well and some people used to leave pins and buttons and pennies and hair-pins there. There is the track of a knee in a stone on top of the well. There are steps down to the water in the well. There is no water in the well now. People used to perform stations at that well on their bare knees.
