Cill Maighneann
St. Maighneann is the patron of Kilmainham but tradition remembers nothing about him ... There is a holy well in the parish not named from any Saint, but from its locality Tobar alt an easa, the well of the precipice of the waterfall ... Cattle are driven to it from many parts of Cavan to be cured ... The site of St. Maighneann's Church is occupied by the Protestant Church. <Br>Lch.80
