About St. Dympna's Church, Upper Lavey

St. Dympna's Church, Upper Lavey was built in 1861 in the Gothic Revival style. It has a four-bay nave and rendered walls. Notable features include a tower, stained-glass windows, buttressed walls and lancet windows. It was designed by John Ryan.

The building

The interior has a replacement coffered ceiling, flat over the centre and gently sloping to the sides. The former chancel arch has been replaced by a cantilevered hood above the reredos, and an octagonal stone font stands at the altar.
