Located on the corner of George Street and Conway Road. The church website shows that the church was built in 1844-46 in an economical version of the then fashionable Norman style, to the design of J.J. Coles, a prolific Catholic architect. It is built of squared coarse brown limestone rubble with a Welsh slate roof. The church is aligned NW/SE. The church features an early 20th century gabled dormer with lattice casement over the doorway. The apse has five windows with pilasters between a conical roof. The church was refurbished in 1958. Grade II listed in August 1997.
