Killaloe is a civil parish in County Clare, Ireland. The main settlement is the town of Killaloe. The parish is in the barony of Tulla. It is 20 miles from Ennis and 87 miles from Dublin. The name is said to be a corrupt form of Kill-da-Lua, and to be derived from the foundation of an abbey by St. Lua or Molua in the 6th century. The town is on the west bank of the Shannon near the falls of Killaloe, about a mile from Lough Derg. In 1837 an old bridge with 19 arches crossed the river at this point. The parish in 1837 covered 13,045 statute acres, most of which were farmed.
