From: (visit link) It seems that the Wesleyan, Baptist and Congregational churches got together and arranged to have their particular services on alternating Sundays, as their minister was available.
The Church is a buttressed brick building, with a 'steepish' pitched roof. The windows are of 'lead glass', but of no intricate design.
There is a small alcove at the northern end for entrance. In there there is a plaque designating the importance and historicity of the Church. There is also a functional bell on a 3 metre tall wooden post.
It seems from research that apart from the dairy industry, that the Bandon Grave region also had corn and tobacco industries.
Date the Church was built, dedicated or cornerstone laid: 03/01/1888
