Kiltubrid or Kiltubbrid (Irish : Cill Tiobraid) [1] is a civil parish in the barony of Leitrim, County Leitrim, Ireland. The villages of Keshcarrigan and Drumcong lie within the civil parish. [1]
The name Kiltubrid derives from the Irish Cill Tiobraid meaning "church of the well". This may be a reference to an ancient church in Muintir Eolais. This building was substantially demolished during Penal times. The remaining ruins are located beside a holy well dedicated to Saint Patrick. Folklore relates that the well was infilled when the church was demolished, but sprang up a short distance away.
