- There is the ruins of an old church in Tigroney The name it self suggests it Tigroney means House of Romans Palladius the predecessor of St Patrick is supposed to have built it He came up the river Avoca and rested in the sheltered valley and gave the name to the townland This church is thought to have been the first Catholic church built in IrelandThere are four opinions advanced as to the probable site on which the church stood.According to some it was built on Kearns's bog, other say that Cosgrave's bog Another opinion is that it stood at the back of Kearn's house just on that little green plot beneath the prominent rock. other say that it I would be a more sensible view of the matter that it *stood* was built on the rock itself It would be idle to suppose that a bog would have been the foundation of the churchThe only reason that Cosgrave's bog might be the site is its nearness to the river its being very sheltered and there is a holy well there
