St Gobban's Church

This tiny and picturesque church, built in the 1950s, is said to be the smallest in Ireland. Edit: I am outraged to be informed today (6 June 2017) that it has been flattened after being sold in 2015. Thanks to David, who tells me that he got married in St Gobbans, for bearing the bad news.
