About Holy Cross Church, Charleville

Holy Cross Church, Charleville dates from 1898 and is built in the Gothic Revival style. It has a cruciform plan with a four-bay nave, built of squared limestone under a pitched slate roof. Notable features include a four-stage tower, stained glass including a rose window, an internal gallery and pinnacles.

History

The church was designed by M. A. Hennessy. A mortuary chapel was added in 1908 in the same architectural treatment, with the doorway label stops carved with the initials R.I.P. The west-wall mosaics are attributed as possibly by Walter Doolin or Ludwig Oppenheimer.
