    Share Share Post
    In the olden times on St. Bridgids night the people would put out a ribbon and St. Bridgid would come and bless the ribbon everyone that would have a pain in his head would cure them. If they put the ribbon on their heads. It would cure them. There is a statue of St. Bridgid and St. Patrick in Windgap. There is a stone in Templemichael. It is said Our Lord knelt on it and the mark is still seen on the stone.
