Praying for the Diocese 2014: The parish boundaries of Straide (Templemore) parish stretch from Lough Cullen in the north to close to the town of Balla in the south & is bordered, largely, by Bohola & Foxford parishes to the east and Tuam diocese to the west. The parish contains many historical sites - including Wedge Tombs (2500-1800 BC) & Ring Forts (400-1100 AD). The townland of Ballylahan also contains the ruins of one of the first & largest baronial castles built in Mayo in the mid 13th century by Jordan of Exeter who also built Straide Abbey (the Priory of the Holy Cross) in 1252. Straide's most famous son is, undoubtedly, Michael Davitt who was instrumental in founding & advancing the aims of the Land League. He is buried in the grounds of Straide Abbey. The disused Church in which he was baptised is now a museum in his honour. The parish has one Church & one Primary School - both dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul. It also has a Community Hall named after Michael Davitt. 2014 marks the 100th anniversary of the laying of the foundation stone of the present Church as well as the 50th anniversary of the occupancy of the present school building.
