The National Monuments Service's description
There was a church dedicated to Murina, the sister of St. Baramedan who was the patron of Kilbarrymeaden church (WA025-040001-). Murina's church was close to the sea in Kilmurrin, and traces of the ruin were still evident (Ryland 1824, 271). While a field called Relig is known (Mooney and Kavanagh 1977, 19) the location of the church is not precisely known.
