  1. Béaloideas - The Patron Saint of the Parish

    Share Share Post
    The patron saint of the parish is Saint Cronan. There is a church in Tarman which was belonging to him and anyone that does anything to it will be punished severely.
    This parish is called Temple Cronan. There are two wells attached to this church, and they are called after Saint Cronan. There is a cure in one well for sore eyes.
