St. Molua's Church, Magheracloone
The present church dates from
1824 replacing an
earlier one which may well have stood on the site of even earlier
churches.
The church was funded by a loan of £800 from the Board of
First
Fruits. By 1889 it was in need of repair and the opportunity was taken
to re-order the interior. and add the chancel and a Vestry room. In
1881 the parish was joined with Ardragh and in 1961 it was joined with
Carrickmacross.
