  1. Béaloideas on St Muchua

    Share Share Post
    St Muchua is known as the patron St of Clashmore, In olden times it is said that his holy well was at the top of the village but because of some woman who washed clothes in the well. It was changed in the night to a place called Millmount about a quarter of a mile from the Village where it is at the present day
    St Machuas day was a very noted day in the prarish of Clashmore in olden times. It was the tenth of February which was Patron day, There was also a great fair on that day and people came from far and near to the fair and patron,
