  1. The word "Filemore" derived from the Irish - "Faill-mór" means "big cliff". The place is so called because of the black cliff in Michael Sullivan's land near Filemore Church. Filemore was, and is still very famous for hunting. Someone has said of it:
    "Filemore is the place for merry sport and singing
    But the chief amongst them all is our charming beagle-hunting"
    and also:-
    "To Tyromoyle, it is worth while for the hunter there to stray".
