Mitchell Henry built the Gothic Church between 1877 and 1881 as a memorial to his wife, following her untimely death.
The Church is a ‘cathedral in miniature’, complete with a crypt, projecting corner buttresses and carved angelic gargoyles. The interior is embellished with a variety of Irish marble columns.
The columns support the gothic arches of the decorative caen stone ceiling. |
In the south transept, a beautiful stained glass tracery window depicts the five graces; Fortitude, Faith, Charity, Hope and Chastity. The Church is a centre of reflection and prayer for many visitors. Mitchell Henry built the Gothic Church between 1877 and 1881 as a memorial to his wife, following her untimely death.
