Striking and individual Roman Catholic church on Bull Bay Road on the outskirts of Amlwch. It was built in the 1930s using design elements embodying a nautical theme. The main body of the church is a high domed stressed concrete construction which has advanced ribs along its length, as the upturned hull of a boat. This is on a roughcast rendered plinth with portholes to each 'ribbed' bay. It is a Grade II listed building (Cadw ref: 24455 https://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=&id=24455 ).
