What is recorded here
Kilfeacle means Church of the Tooth, suggesting a missing church kept a saint's tooth as a relic. That small graveyad still holds an ornamental slab, bright enough to mark the place where worship once crowded the grass.
Unlocated church and graveyard in this townland, described by H. Roe in local newspaper article as 'Kilfeakle (Cill fiacla), Church of the tooth. That is a church where the tooth of a saint, was preserved as a relic. There is an ornamental grave slab presenting some interesting features in an old graveyard here'.
