Place & story
A repaired parish church
Samuel Lewis’s 1837 description of Killoteran records a grant of one hundred and sixty-four pounds from the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for repairs to its church. He described the work as recent, without giving a year or a construction date for the building. The parish rectory formed part of the Waterford deanery’s endowment, and its glebe comprised seventeen acres. Lewis also named West Lodge as the residence of E. Roberts; his entry supplies no fuller personal name. [2]
