Westropp (1904-5, 399) recorded the following about Kilcolman Church; 'Kilcolman, restored by Athissell, 1253 (B.B.L., p. 101). Kilcolman-inferior, 1302, 1418, 1591, in Toghe Olybane, 1586 (Peyton, p. 67) and 1615. Fabric - It was 45 feet [13.7m] by 18 feet 9 inches [5.7m]; the gables gone, and the south wall broken; 30 feet [9m] of the north wall, 10 feet [3m] by 4 feet [1.2m], remained, with a defaced window, in 1840. St. Colman's Well [LI019-187----] had a pattern on October 29th'. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 20 November 2018
Kilcolman Church was restored by Athissell in 1253 and is associated with later records from the 14th to 17th centuries; its dedication and architectural style are not specified in the sources, but it appears to have been a significant ecclesiastical site in the region.
