Ballinderry
Ballinderry is joining with Kilwarlin to promote a three church visit. We are linking with the Middle Church at Ballinderry, the original church of Ireland in the area founded by the famous Bishop Jeremy Taylor. Restored in the 1900's it is a unique example of a Plantation church and still retains its three decker pulpit and small bottle glass windows . It is hoped that this link will encourage people to plan a full day out in the area especially with the work of Zula's garden at Kilwarlin also being highlighted this year.
