About St. Ailbe's Church, Emly

St. Ailbe's Church, Emly was built in 1880 in the Gothic Revival style. It has a cruciform plan with a five-bay nave, built of squared limestone under a pitched slate roof. Notable features include a four-stage bell tower with a spire, stained glass including a rose window, an internal gallery and window tracery.

The building

The interior roof uses timber scissor trusses with braces supported on ornate corbels linked by moulded string courses. A freestanding sandstone water font stands near the door, and the site is enclosed by snecked-limestone walling and gate piers with wrought-iron gates; the graveyard lies to the south-east.
