About St. Peter in Chains, Ballymacoda

St. Peter in Chains, Ballymacoda was built around 1860. The church is built of rubble sandstone under a pitched slate roof. Notable features include stained-glass windows, an internal gallery and a marble altar.

The building

The churchyard is enclosed by a rubble-stone boundary wall carrying a carved limestone plaque. At the site entrance, rendered plinth walls support cast-iron railings, and square-profile rendered piers have gabled caps decorated with cross motifs.
