The spire of St Patrick’s (RC) church at Chapel Hill and the spire of Lisburn (CoI) Cathedral Image are dominant features particularly when seen heading south on the M1. The church was dedicated in June 1900 but the tower had to wait until 1932 before completion in its present form. The following additional information has been kindly supplied by a visitor to the site: the spire was designed by Gerard I O’Gorman in 1932, a parishioner who lived nearby. He was commissioned by Canon O' Boyle, the parish priest at the time.
