History
The church was built in 1864 in Irish Gothic Revival architecture by the Irish architect Alfred Gresham Jones.[1]
It was built with granite and sandstone material. The main facade has a neo-Gothic arch topped with wooden doors and a rose window in the center ornamented with stained glass. The windows are pointed arch with geometric tracery. The roof, with a gable slope, is topped with slate. The church has a small house-abbey attached with the same architectural style topped by a granite fireplace.
The church is set back behind on the street and surrounded by trees and hedges and a stone wall topped with a wrought iron fence. The temple has two facades, the main façade on Eglington Road and the side façade on Florence Road. Its state of conservation is good.[1]
