Church
The church was founded in 1881 and consecrated as a Church of Ireland church in 1885 by Archbishop Lord Plunkett.
It is built in a woodland setting in view of the main house. It is surrounded by a circular, dry moat and can only be entered by passing through a lynch gate. There is a small graveyard attached to the church.
