Home of the famous Kerry football player Pat Spillane |
 |
Many outstanding players have worn the Kerry jersey over the years, but the three Spillane brothers,
Mike Pat and Tom, all members of the Templenoe Football Club
take pride of place. Between them they hold 23 All-Ireland football medals in Minor,
Under 21 and Senior grades, a record no family has equaled, and few if any will surpass.
Their late father, Tom, also played for Kerry and Munster.
The club had many victories over the years in Kenmare district board competitions but the highlight
of the playing successes was the winning of the Kerry County
Novice title in 1973 and the Junior County Championship in 1975.
Nine Templenoe players won Senior Kerry County Championship medals in 1974.
The Pub was run by Pat's Mother Maura Spillane until Pat took over in the Late 80's
until then the pub also incorporated a small grocery shop.
When visiting Templenoe make sure you have a pint at
Pat Spillane's Pub and enjoy the view from the terrace.
