The oldest document now before me is the Liber Regalis Visitationis, and in this it is written Kilskawran...It would appear from a holy well lying in the townland of Trimmer that St. Bridget was the Patroness of this parish, and if so, it is not very likely that Scauran was the name of a saint. ‘Patterns’ were formerly held at this well on St. Bridget’s, but not in the memory of anyone living.
