A brief History

Killeagh parish today is made up of the old medieval parishes Ardagh, Dangandonovan (now known as Dangan) and Killeagh. These parishes were centred on their parish church.

Another church and graveyard largely forgotten in Killeagh parish, is that located in the vicinity of Castlerichard. Its medieval name was Inchemacbrannofe. It is shown on early Ordinance Survey maps; today only the undulating surface of the graveyard remains.
