The Roman Catholic Church, after decades of being based in a temporary 'tin' building, opened its first purpose built church, Our Holy Redeemer, in Stornoway on the corner of Scotland Street and Kenneth Street in 1990. In November 2004 the building was destroyed by fire. A newly designed building was constructed and it re-opened in May 2007 with a dedication mass conducted by the Bishop of Argyll.
