In the townland of Coolderry- Coill Dearg- nearby is the small field known as the Caldragh, where in olden times was an old church and we are told St Derrig had a monastery here. Those lands belonged to the Kiltybegs Ranch, formerly in the hands of the Filgates of Louth, but changed owners several times and were finally taken over by the Land Commission about 1928. When the lands were being tilled, a small tombstone bearing an unlegible inscription was unearthed, also a small stone with groove equivalent to a holy-water font. In it are also some v. small ridges, remains of graves and in a corner some human bones were unearthed.
