Halla Naomh Ailbhe

Detached cruciform-plan Catholic church, built 1809, with entrance porch to east gable. Now in use as hall. Pitched artificial slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Painted pebbledashed walls with date plaque to east gable and commemorative plaque to porch. Pointed arch window opening to south transept with Y-timber tracery, pointed-arch window opening to entrance porch with replacement uPVC window, partly blocked pointed-arch window openings to nave with replacement square-headed uPVC windows. Square-headed replacement timber doors to porch and east wall of south transept. Stoup set in east gable wall is reused carved medieval window head.

Simple in design and architectural detailing, this former church is typical of early nineteenth-century design. Although now altered to accommodate a new function as a village hall, the building still retains features such as the pointed arch window to the south transept. The building holds historical interest as the wall plaque commemorates the ceasing of faction fighting in Emly in 1862.
