Killimer, also known as Killimer and Knockerra, is a parish in County Clare, Ireland, and part of the Inis Cathaigh grouping of parishes within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Killaloe.[1]
As of 2022, the co-parish priest is Pat Larkin.[2]
Originally, in medieval times, Killimer was a separate parish. However, it was later amalgamated into the parish of Kilrush. In 1848 it became a parish in its own right again, but much larger than the medieval parish.[3]
