- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)Cill Bhrigde Church of Saint (Brigid) Bridget. No trace of walls are to be seen in it in 1840. On the left side on the front of the post of the gateway to the graveyard are some figures of animals chiselled - all modern, and one of them the figure of a cat with 2 tails. To the right or front of the post on the left is a figure representing Saint ridget with Cross and beads on the Bosom.
