   Island can still point out the spot where she was buried as it is marked by a slab or flag.
   There is a splendid Round Tower still in the Island and the ruins of seven Chruches and other buildings of great antiquity - monuments of its former importance Once of the old Church ruin is called "Teapall na Marbh" or Church of the dead. The other Churches in the Island are the Cathedral Church of St Mary which is the largest of the ruins and to which is attached a Sacristy and Oratory of great antiquity; a short distance to the north of these ruins lies "Teampall Senáin" or St Senan's Church where tradition tells us the illustrious Saint is buried (in St Senan's bed).
   Since St Senan's death no woman dares to enter St Senan's bed and men are only allowed to enter it on their bare feet. Some women who did deliberately enter St Senan's bed were punished for their foolhardiness in a very signal manner. In the centre of the Island lies "Teampeall na n-Aingeal" or the Church of the Angel. It was here the Saint was deposited when an Angel took him from Ballard to Scattery Island first
   There is also a Churchyard in Scattery Island where the islanders and the people of the town of Kilrush and district still bury their dead. It is said that in ancient days it was only the elite of Corca Bhaiscin
