There was a Catholic Church on this site in 1306 but it was in ruins in 1622. The present (CoI) church of St. Nicholas was built on the original site in 1813. In 1839 the north transept was added to accommodate the coastguards and other officials stationed in Ardglass. The cramped nature of the site means that the spire cannot be shown.
