The Blessed Well in Killard is called Our Lord’s Blessed Well. St. Senan is said to have stopped and washed his feet there on his way to Scatttery Island. On Good Friday people would go to the well, pray and do the rounds. The rounds consisted of the outer circle where one said a Rosary, and again on the second and third circle. Then one knelt by the wall inside the wall and said another Rosary and drank the water. The old adage is that “If you see a fish in the well, your request would be answered.”
