History

Possibly designed by the Pain brothers, this Board of First Fruits Church of Ireland church is the third to be built on this site. It stands on a raised location adjacent to a graveyard containing carved stone markers. The site is enclosed by a rendered boundary wall with cast-iron railings and approached by cut limestone steps leading to a gate flanked by square-profile piers.
