    There are many old graves in Newchapel. It is used up to this day. There was a chapel in Carraig Áir many years ago, but there is no sign of the ruins, but the tree to which the priest used tie his horse, is still to be seen. There are many graves there, but there is no tombstones or crosses in it. It was used for about a century.
    There was a church in Coleman many years ago. The ruins are still to be seen. The head of Saint Coleman is carved out on the corner of the gable end of the church. There are many graves there, but there are no tomb stones to be seen only one plain stone.
