Killimor takes its name from Iomar who crossed the Shannon in vain to bring back his bride. He built a little hut beside the Church and lived there as a hermit.

One of the big Jubilee Projects in the parish for the year 2000 has been the interior renovation, re-ordering and painting of both churches – Killimor and Tiernascragh. The result in each church has been spectacular and the reaction of those who comment has been most positive with words like ‘bright, beautiful, open, warm, welcoming’ heard again and again.
