- There is the remains of a church in Mr Sweeney's field in Quigabar. Tradition says that it was built by the order of St Patrick.
The dimensions are fifty-eight feet long, and twenty feet wide.
The place where the church was built is marshy land, and it was never cultivated.
There is a stone wall seven yards from the west side of the church, and there is a green mound outside the wall, which people believe to be a grave.
