    In olden times Skryne parish was divided into the following divisions, Skryne, Tara, Rathfeigh, Trevet, Macetown, Templekieran and Lismullen. The patron saints of each are: of Skryne St Columcille; of Tara St Patrick, of Rathfeigh the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin; of Trevet St Patrick, of Macetown St Nicholas, of Templekieran St Kieran and of Lismullen the Holy Trinity.
