Parish of Kilquake. 

 Our present parish is one of three bearing the same name in Co. Cork. 

 The parish name, derived from the townland on which is the ancient church, 

 signifies Cuan's Cliureh. Stations or " rounds " at the holy well took place 

 on June 23rd, but there evidently has been a transfer of the original 

 patronage, almost certainly under Anglo-Norman iniiuence.
