Note 90 — Chapter V · Holy Chapels and Holy Wells.

Reading edition

Editor’s Note.—Tradition in that part of the island says (so I was told in 1896 by the woman living in the old farmhouse called St. Magloire) that in building this cottage they came upon the old corner stone of the original chapel. Thinking it was sacrilegious to move it, and would entail ill-luck on them and their children, they left it in its place, and there it still remains.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
