Title

Our Lady of Mount Carmel RC Church

Description

The church in Sandyhill Road was built in 1870 and comfortably seats 120 people. It cost ?1,300 to build and the money was raised mainly by public subscription, and was opened on 6th December 1870 by Bishop MacDonald. In addition to the main seating and sanctuary areas, there is a choir loft which is now used for storage and a small chapel used for private prayer, meditation and small group meetings. The sacristy links the church with the attached parish house that was built concurrently, and the ground floor accommodation of the house provides comfortable parlour (with kitchen) for meetings and activities, and a study for parish administration and reception of visitors.
