Description

Completed in 1826 in gothic style, the church has a handsome sandstone facade and rubble walls of many coloured stones. It is adorned with pinnacled buttresses, fine traceried windows and a large central door leads into a porch from which one enters the spacious church.

Part of the ceiling of the present sanctuary, at the apex, is done in panels of azure blue with a stencilled design in the middle of each, depicting the medieval letter M. Stained glass windows light the elaborate interior.
