Saint Mary’s Parochial Hall in Ferbane portrays some interesting architectural elements. The most notable of these features is a parapet to the entrance gable and flanking side bays. Reflective of crenellations, the coping detail is more decorative than defensive. The ridge cresting is a popular nineteenth-century detail and contrasts here with the structure's overall twentieth-century character, borne from varied use of renders and linear design. As a publicly used structuret, Saint Mary's hall is of social interest within the town.
