What is recorded here

Kirkurd Church is associated with Saint Fillan, a 7th-century Scottish monk and healer known for his miraculous cures and founding of several religious sites in Perth and Kinross. The holy well linked to the church was traditionally visited for its curative properties, particularly for ailments of the eyes and skin, and was a site of pilgrimage and ritual washing.
