St Colman's Church

The Church of Saint Colman (in Irish: Eaglais Naomh Cólman) is a Roman Catholic parish church in Claremorris in County Mayo, Ireland. Located in the parish of Claremorris in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Tuam,[1] it is traditionally associated with Saint Colmán and is dedicated to Our Lady of Good Counsel.[2]

The church was designed in an Early English Gothic style by R. M. Butler,[2] and was built between 1904 and 1911.[3] A number of the stained glass windows in the church are associated with the studios of Harry Clarke in Dublin.[3] In the gallery, there is Gothic-style timber panelled pipe organ.[3] The church is included on the Record of Protected Structures maintained by Mayo County Council.[4]

Another church within the same parish, the Church of Our Lady, is located at Barnacarroll.[5]
