About St. Mary's Church, Croom

St. Mary's Church, Croom was built between 1800 and 1820 in the Gothic Revival style. It has a cruciform plan and rendered walls under a pitched slate roof. Notable features include stained-glass windows, a bellcote and a marble altar. The sacristy was added in 1898.

History

The church was rebuilt in 1929. A baptistry and chancel followed in 1932, with all of this later work carried out by architect Ralph Henry Byrne. These interventions form a distinct twentieth-century phase beyond the earlier sacristy addition.
