St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church

   

Built in 1829, St Mary's is centrally situated in the Square. It was renovated and a spire and porch added in1865. The side aisles were added in 1910. In line with reforms that followed Vatican II, much of the old altar was removed and the pulpit taken out. Local folklore has a story that Lord Listowel prevailed upon the clergy to ring the Angelus bell at 7.00 pm so that he could get an extra hour’s work from his men. In late 1998, a huge job of rewiring and painting the church was undertaken.
