Our Lady of Good Counsel Church.

 

The church of Our Lady of Good Counsel is situated just off a sweeping

bend at the top of Churchview Road a red brick eighties looking building

with a school nearby.  Internally it has a central nave and an open plan

type altar with an inset crucifix behind the altar. It has a number of shrines

and some beautiful stained glass windows of various Saints. The light play

inside the building at certain points of a sunny day can be exceptional.

The church is still in practical daily use, with the mornings given over to Mass,

 some Rosary groups in some churches, and funerals. So unless I intended to

 fully attend mass I would normally keep my three Saints visits to the

afternoons, this is after the 12noon Angelus and before 3.30pm approximately.
