An old church that is located in Tourmakeady in Co. Mayo, in the West of Ireland. Its old architecture fascinated me, how it’s standing and not in bad condition for its age.

I couldn’t find a date carved into the beautiful stone work, but the grave of Thomas Baron Plunkett Lord Bishop (symbolised by a beautiful Celtic Cross) who dies 19th October 1868 was there, so I can’t even guess how long this beautiful church is standing before this.
