It's a truly spiritual place with a history to match its beauty and grace. The area around Dromin church is majestic, backing onto an ancient mound or moat and views of the entire country to enjoy.
A quick chat with Fr Michael Murtagh filled me in a lot more on the place and a church, built in 1826 in just six weeks and allegedly between two showers of rain!
The present altar was put in in 1876 and it was rededicated in 1877 with celebrant, a Dromin man, Fr Thomas Taaffe.
It was designed by architect John Murray who was born in 1807, believed to be at Lawlesstown, Dunleer. It was called St Joseph's then, but reverted to St Finian.
