Catholic Church of the Nativity of Our Lady

Freestanding partially underground mausoleum in graveyard, built c.1910, with limestone steps leading down to vault. Rendered barrel-vaulted roof. Decoratively rendered walls to façade of burial vault. Channelled render to walls and polychromatic tiles to floor of antechamber. Decorative cast-iron gate to burial chamber. Cast-iron railings set on concrete plinths and with gate, to perimeter of site.

This mausoleum is the resting place of Daniel and William Cormack, wrongly hanged for the murder of a land agent in 1858 and originally buried in Nenagh Gaol. The render decoration of the façade of the burial chamber is exuberant and of apparent artistic quality, and the text on the plaques is a typical example of early-twentieth- century post-colonial polemicism.
