About Killinaboy (also spelt Kilnaboy)

KilnaboyCill Iníne Baoith – The church of the daughter of Baoith.

Killinaboy lies between Corrofin and Kilfenora.  As you travel from the south you are greeted by the 11th century medieval Church and the remains of a round tower. Across the way is the former Post office which is currently the home of “X-PO”, which has been re-opened as a Community and cultural centre for the Parish of Killinaboy.

Mullaghmore lies a few miles to the east of Killinaboy village while at Roughan hill can be found a replica of the world famous Tau Cross. Castles in this parish include Lemenagh which was the home of the infamous Máire Rua as well as Inchiquin castle. The Parish of Killinaboy has over 300 items of antiquity alone and is a favourite place for both the Botinist and Burren rambler alike.
