What is recorded here

Detached T-plan gable-fronted Roman Catholic church, built 1820. Two-bay side elevations to nave, with single-bay transepts and single-bay chancel to the north-west. Roughcast rendered walls. Pitched tile roofs. Pointed arch openings with ashlar limestone surrounds, sills and label mouldings. Three-bay gable-fronted entrance, with segmental-arched ashlar limestone door opening having label moulding and stone steps. Stone plaque and clock above. Limestone boundary walls with wrought-iron gates to north, and carved limestone gate piers with cast-iron railings and gates to south-east. Mass rock located to north.
This church forms part of an interesting group of Roman Catholic buildings on the outskirts of the village, with the parochial house, belfry, and twentieth century National school. This simple T-plan church is enhanced by the limestone dressings.
