    Is the one church used by both the Catholic Church and the Church of Ireland or are there two churches, similar in size and in structure with the one name.

    The one church is used for both church of ireland services and mass.....its technically COI but there is a catholic mass on once a month (i think) and both COI and catholic weddings are held there...its beautiful inside this church

    I don't understand when you say technically COI, it is church of Ireland and is used by the roman catholic church with the permission of the COI.

    Im actually not sure, the church was originally built by / linked to the Bagwell family who lived in Marlfield house (landlords) and they wud have been church of ireland, I would assume that its as you said used by the catholic church wither the permission COI.
