The processional way with the west entrance to the church on the right

It is interesting to note that in this last picture of the processional way it is evident the entrance to the church on the western side (into the garden) is not original. The brickwork shows that it was added later. Originally the garden was a private garden for the Presbytery and there was no access to Glendaragh Road. The front door to the Presbytery was located behind the church and is now found in the flower room. This will be reinstated as an access from the house to the sacristy.
