There has been a church at this site since the 12th
century. There are Roman references to a church here in 1414 and 1426.
It probably replaced the old church on St. Mogue's Island and was acquired
by Queen Elizabeth in 1590. It started use as a Protestant church in in about
1610.
The name Templeport comes from the Irish 'Teampall An Phoirt' which translates
to 'Church of the landing place'.
