- Somewhat to the east of the town stands this church which is a modern structure, but the ancient remains of two churches, one dedicated to St. Brigid, and the other to the Virgin Mary, were visible in 1750, both having stood in the same churchyard, which is very uncommon. There were also the ruins of a chapel of ease at Spittle-bridge, one mile east of Buttevant. The whole town of Buttevant formerly seems to have been an assemblage of churches and religious houses. Buttevant was called by Borlase "An old nest of abbots, priests and friars".
