Hi all, I've been trying to pinpoint where St Patricks Church, Rathvilly, Carlow is on a map without much success.  Hoping that someone with local knowledge can help me out.

I have discovered that off Phelan Street is a road called St Patricks Park & wondered if the church is in this area (see attached map).

Have tried 'googling' for a photo of St Patricks again without luck, so am relying on a fellow rootschatter to know where to look.  Thanks in advance.  Regards, TonyR.

Hello TonyR;
The church is on the N81 and on your map it is between the n81 and Rathvilly name. The little dot between these two is where the church is located.
The N81 swings around the church coming from Baltinglass and going round to Tullow. It's right in the centre of Rathvilly and it seems the roads were built around the church.
I took some photo's of the church and if you wish I can send them to you.
If you go to info@genealogylaois.com and post your e-mail address on the contact section, I will get it, and forward the photo's.
Best wishes,
Jack
