Saint Patrick's Catholic Church in Ballydoogan

Freestanding Roman Catholic Church, dated 1840, having four-bay nave, gabled porch to south-west gable, and canted chancel to north-east added 1932, and sacristy to west with pitched roof. Bellcote to south-west gable. Rendered and painted walls with rendered plinth. Pitched natural slate roof with moulded limestone copings and skew corbels to south-west gables, and cast-iron rainwater goods supported on limestone corbels. Timber lancet windows with stained glass, having raised render surrounds and limestone sills. Trefoil-headed stained-glass window in triangular surround to south-west gable of nave. Tudor-arch twelve-panel double-leaf timber entrance door with raised render surround to east side of porch. Date-stone to south-east long wall. Carved stoup to interior dated 1782. Set back from road with former school and parish hall, built 1884, to north-east of site. Hedge and ashlar limestone boundary wall.

The church retains its original form and use and is an important building for the local community. Although it is modest in character, the bellcote, gabled entrance and stained-glass windows embellish the church and add to its architectural significance. Three of the stained-glass windows of c.1930, were executed by the studio of Harry Clarke, the noted Irish early twentieth-century stained-glass artist.
