Saint Teresa’s Church was built in 1835 and reconstructed by the local community in 1930. It sits on a prominent site leading into the local village reflecting its social importance within the community. The modest form is enhanced by its stained-glass windows by the studio of renowned Irish artist Harry Clarke.
