St. Dairbhile's Church

[1][2] St. Dairbhile's Church is located 2.4 km (1½ miles) south of Aughleam in the townland of Fallmore, on the Mullet Peninsula.

[citation needed] According to legend, if someone can squeeze themselves through the west window three times, they will never die from drowning.

[citation needed] Legend tells us that in the 6th century St. Dairbhile (Darbiled), a native of Meath, travelled to the Mullet Peninsula to escape an admirer.

When her horrified lover left, she washed her eyes in the waters of a well and her sight was restored.

The church has a narrow ashlar-lined, deeply-splayed east window with an arcuated lintel, and a narrow west doorway with inclined jambs and arcuated lintel.
