Killegar, County Leitrim, Ireland
1. Drumreilly Church of Ireland which overlooks Garadice Lough was built in 1737 by William Gore Esq. of Woodford Estate.

It is listed as ref LE025-058 in the Irish national monument archaeological survey.
2. Newtowngore St Patrick's Church of Ireland was built in 1850 but the surrounding graveyard contains grave makers that predate that church, as this was the site of the pre-reformation Moyagh parish church. It is listed as ref LE026-016 in the Irish national monument archaeological survey.
3. Killegar Church of Ireland was built in 1817 by John Godley of Killegar Demesne. The surrounding graveyard contains a variety of grave makers dating from that time to present.
