Place & story
A later addition to the nave
Two windows designed by Ethel Rhind were added to Saint Catherine’s Church at Curry in 1915. Each depicts an angel within a medallion. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage records them in the nave of this Ballymacormick parish church, alongside earlier timber windows with Y-shaped tracery. The church’s square tower has a battlemented parapet and carved corner pinnacles, while its graveyard includes stone memorials and plots enclosed by iron railings. [2]
