English: The church was built in 1819 and was consecrated by Bishop James Doyle. Members of the Keogh family from Orchard, Leighlinbridge, Thomas, his wife Alice, and Colonel Myles Keogh are commemorated in a window in the church. The architects Tyndall, Hogan & Hurley oversaw alterations to the church in 1974, which included galleries being removed, the constuction of a new sanctuary, and the installation of a new altar and baptismal font in Wicklow granite. This church was the first rural church in Ireland to use electric lighting, in the 1940s. See John McEvoy, John Duffy: The Churches of Kildare & Leighlin 2000 A.D., ISBN 2-7468-0293-7, p. 22.
