Why
hire fun casino night, wedding disco, starlight dancefloor, chip
van and karoke in Kilkeel?
Kilkeel
takes its name from the old church overlooking the town, it being
the anglicised version of the Gaelic 'Cill Chaoil' meaning "Narrow
Church" or "The Church of/in the Narrow Place." The
name may be drawn from the church location on a narrow site above
the town.
The church was constructed in 1388 and dedicated to "St Colman
Del Mourne." It was thought to be the principal Church in a
group which included Kilmegan and Kilcoo despite the fact that Kilkeel
was very sparsely populated in the Middle Ages. There are references
to Kilkeel as a Christian settlement as far back as the 11th century.
Kilkeel is the capital of the ancient Kingdom of Mourne. The cemetery
attached to the church was used for burials until 1916. The last
burials at the cemetery were victims of a collision between two
steamers the Retriever and the SS Connemara in Carlingford Lough.
On 30 May 1918 a fleet of Kilkeel fishing boats was sunk by the
U-boat UB-64 under the command of Otto von Schrader. The boats sunk,
12 miles off the coast of County Down, included the Jane Gordon,
Cyprus, Never Can Tell, St Mary, Sparkling Wave, Lloyds, Marianne
Macrum and the motor vessel Honey Bee. Only two boats, Moss Rose
and Mary Joseph, were not sunk and the crews returned to port on
those boats. The Mary Joseph (N55) is now in the Ulster Folk and
Transport Museum.
