The old parish church was formerly in Donaghcloney village but was moved to Waringstown in 1641. The old church was on the site where local tradition says St Patrick traced out the foundations with his pastoral staff. There were no remains of this ancient church found. The building was erected in 1903 by the widow of W.E. Liddell to service the village of Donaghcloney and surrounding area as a National school . The school closed in 1970s and the building became St Patricks Church of Ireland. The memorial in front of the church is in memory of those men who served in 1st World War 1914-1918.
