History

Originally, the parish of Garrycloyne was served by a church on a different site. A new church was required due to the original's poor condition and distance from Blarney town. In 1766, an order was issued permitting the construction of a new church on the present site.Шаблон:Sfn Construction began in 1771, to plans possibly made by architect John Morrison, and built by Sir James St John Jefferyes.Шаблон:Sfn The Church of The Resurrection was completed in roughly 1776,Шаблон:Sfn partly funded by the Board of First Fruits.Шаблон:Sfn It has a glebe of 21 acres. A glebe-house was constructed in 1807.[2] The church was expanded by an unknown architect in 1837,[3] and an apse was constructed in 1861.Шаблон:Sfn

In either 1996,[1] or 1997,Шаблон:Sfn the interior was renovated and modernised.[1] The works "fundamentally altered" the building.[4]

Robert Ferris became the rector of the parish in 2020, having been Associate Minister there for eight years prior to his promotion.[5][6]

Architecture

The church is cruciform, and built in the neoclassical style. This is unusual for a church built with funds from the Board of First Fruits, the majority of which were built the following century, and in the Gothic Revival style.[7] It is built in Doric order.Шаблон:Sfn Above the gable of the south transept is a Latin cross made of limestone.Шаблон:Sfn The belfry contains a bell taken from an older church in Athnowen, Ovens.Шаблон:Sfn
