About Enniskillen St Macartin
Enniskillen St Macartin is a Church of Ireland church in Enniskillen, County Fermanagh. It is in the Diocese of Clogher.
History
The church was designed as part of the new town of Enniskillen created in the years following 1611 on the orders of King James the First. The first building, the Church of St Anne, was probably completed in 1627. It was eventually extended, had been demolished by 1832, and the present building was constructed and completed in 1842.
In 1923 the church was upgraded to cathedral status and renamed St Macartin's Cathedral. The older cathedral at Clogher was retained, leaving the diocese with two. In 1970 part of the nave was converted into a regimental chapel in memory of the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers and the Royal Inniskilling Dragoons, both of which were absorbed into other British Army regiments.
Notable features
Hardly any of the original church remains, but part of its tower was incorporated into the present one and can be seen above the main entrance door, where there is a small three-light lattice window and a carved stone dated 1637 together with the Agnus Dei.
Richard Pokrich was one of the founders of the church. His son William was the first person buried in the churchyard, in 1628, and William's gravestone is set into the wall of the cathedral. The tower carries a peal of ten bells.
