St. Aidan's Cathedral

Saint Aidan’s Cathedral.A striking example of Pugin’s later period cruciform church. An exercise in perfect proportion, which endows an outwardly moderate sized structure with a soaring Gothic interior. Built in 1843 using locally sourced Ordovician rock with Wicklow granite dressings, it is surmounted by an imposing broach spire which dominates the surrounding countryside.Internally decorated with richly coloured and minutely figured stencilling with Pugin motifs, it features an exquisitely carved sandstone reredos and chancel screen, and has been deservedly termed “Pugin’s Irish Gem”.Open daily- for guided group tours - please telephone to arrange.
