OK this is not an easy one. Just the name of the village will do. My Late Mother's family have a farm here. I used to milk the cows by hand as a kid.

Yes and Catholic. Seems quite new. Not sure it was there last time I went which must be 50 years ago.

No Ops. Wrong country even.

Although not famous many photos of church on the WWW.

A river runs through the town on the way to a loch close by. In 1920 the IRA attacked a barracks here. Said that this was a difficult one.
