The limestone structure of St Michael's Church features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and triple lancet window openings in the upper gable-front section.

Cardinal Wiseman of Westminster consecrated St Michael's Church in 1858, following construction delays caused by the Irish Famine of the 1840s.

The church displays stained glass windows created by artist Harry Clarke, depicting St Patrick and the Rose of Lima with intricate detail.

St Michael's Church holds services on Sundays at 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM, with additional weekday masses at 10:00 AM and Saturday vigil at 7:00 PM.
