Hillsborough Cathedral

United Kingdom / Northern Ireland / Hillsborough /

St. Malachy's Church of Ireland was rebuilt between 1760-74 and was paid for by Wills Hill, 1st Marquis of Downshire. The original 17th century church was in very bad repair and the new church, although large, used some of the old foundations.
The monument at the front of the photo was erected by public subscription in 1920/1 and commemorates those fallen in the 1st World War. This photo was taken around 1930.
