History
The village of Timahoe received its name from Saint Mochua who founded a monastery in the location which was also named after him - Teach Mo Chua. Timahoe was built as an estate town by the Cosby family of Stradbally Hall. Originally planned to be built in the form of six-sided star with the ruins and circular market house as the focal points, it was not realised in this manner.
