The Black Church, or St. Mary's Chapel-of-Ease
but it's no longer a church nowadays

Note: It was built in 1830 to serve the Church of Ireland community, but it was closed-down in the 1960's because the number of people at the services had become too small.

It's called the Black Church because it's made out of stones called "calp", and it looks specially dark after rain. There is also a very spooky urban legend behind it.
