    According to Wiki Cam Eolaing from a church of St Molin https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camolin,_County_Wexford

    The AA Road Book of Ireland states 'Eolang's Bend'. :)

    Thanks!

    And are Camolin and Timolin (also the ubiquitous St Molin) both pronounced with the same stresses - Cam OH lin and Tim OH lin?

    I believe the emphasis is on the 'LIN' in TimoLIN but I'm just a blow in and used to pronounce Oulart as Oolart ;)

    This 'blow-out' says the 'blow-in' is correct.

    (Sorry Poochie05 - couldn't resist :-))

    Cam-OH-lin

    Tim-Oh-LIN.
