- (continued from previous page)country visit this Well on the 15th August each year. There is a path in a circle round the well. The people walk round on this path three times repeating three rosaries and this is called a station. To make those stations properly they should be performed barefooted. Most people bring some little present to the Holy Well such as beads, pictures, flowers etc, and nearly everybody brings some Holy water home. On the 15th August each year people are going to that Well from sunrise to sunset.
