At around 11pm on Thursday reports began to circulate of a peculiar image which appeared on the front of a house in the Riverview Estate in Kilmallock.

Within an hour, up to 50 people had gathered outside the two-storey home – some travelling from as far away as Mitchelstown – to say prayers and light candles, at what locals believe is an image of Our Lady.

During the commotion, residents called to the house of a local priest at around 11pm asking him to attend the scene.

“At that stage there were up to 40 people gathered. A number of cars and vans had parked up. People were saying the Rosary and holding candles. The priest joined in,” said one local.
