R. C. Chapel, Clogher (Boyle By.) was built as a Roman Catholic chapel in the early 19th century, likely before 1811, and is noted in Gothic script on the 1837 Ordnance Survey map. Its location on rough ground with rock outcrops suggests a rural, possibly modest structure, reflecting the need for discreet worship during a period of religious restriction in Ireland.
