- Craobh Mullaig. This was the old name for the present village of Castlecoote. The hill of Creemully is in the centre of a circle of other hills.
Some give the derivation as craoidhe mullaig or the head of the hills. On a fine summer day from the top of of the hill of Creeemully, a person can see the mountains of Galway, Mayo, Sligo & Leitrim, also the lovely Shannon with its numerous lakes and islands.
In this village we have one of the oldest churches in the Diocese of Elphin. It was built by a Dominican from Roscommon named Bartholomew Kielty in the year 1812. He named the church Creemully.
People claim St. Kieran as their native patron saint. He taught near Creemully and is buried in a field convenient to the village school. Old people point out a large flag as his burial place. This St. Ciaran was baptized by St. Justus who was placed in charge of the parish of Fuerty by St. Patrick himself.
At present there are sixteen houses most of them thatched with about fifty five people. There are four old people who can tell stories in English only. Nine families have the ancient name of Neilan.
