Church of Ireland - new roof

Church of Ireland, Boyle

At the Parish Church of The Church of Ireland, Boyle, work has started on laying a new roof. The Church building at the top of Green Street was established in the second half of the 18th Centenary and houses many great funerary and military memorials, encanstic tiles and three magnificent stained glass windows. One window in the North Wall of the Nave depicts the Parable of the Good Samaritan. Realboyle photos will follow here shortly
