Graine Church

Bishop Coll, the newly-elected Bishop of Ossory, joined Fr Ollie Maher for a special Mass on Sunday to celebrate Graine Church, which was opened 50 years ago by the late Bishop Peter Birch.

This church was built on the site of the original church and retained many features like the four stained glass windows, the stations of the Cross, the marble and a crucifix from the grounds of the church.

The church was built for the princely sum of £35,000!
