    Kilbride played a very imporant part in the annals of Dunbrody. I am not so well acquainted with the local topography of this southern portion of the Barony as those I have already described. Kilbride and Clonard as their names imply must be places of note in the Celtic period. Kilbride most probably have held some shrine dedicated to Brigid the great patroness of early Irish Churches. For aught I know there may be some relics of these far of times to be traced in Kilbride and Clonard.
