    Share Share Post
    There was a monastery in Kilfidane which was later turned into a church. It is a graveyard now. There were fourteen monks living in it who were attacked by the Black and Tans?? and were killed. It is said that they hid a gold chalice at the back of the Monastery in Matthew Finucane's land.
