1915 – Chapel, St. Louis Convent, Carrickmacross, Co. Monaghan

Part of a complex of buildings from the 1880s through to the 1960s secondary school building. A project of around six years, tenders being sought in 1909, the foundation stone being laid in late 1913, and the final touches of Ludwig Oppenheimer of Manchester doing mosaic work in 1915. No longer in use as a church, most of the interior fixtures and fittings are gone, except for the mosaic tiling of the sanctuary area.
