Prior to the chapel's purchase the basement of the chapel was used as the Town's Library until it was claimed that the building was unsafe for public use.The building was bought by Mr Hugh Michael who despite the sorry and deteriorating aspects of the building, with his own hands and the help of volunteers the church has been restored to its former resplendence."

Dist:0.3km<br/>This pleasant public house in Front Street overlooks the Guntower Museum and the waterfront next to the former dockyard. We enjoyed good value meals here on our way to and from the ferry to Rosslare ! The pub no doubt originally serviced the workers in the Royal Dockyard, being only 50m from one of the dockyard gates, and it has displays on the bar walls about the dockyard and the Sunderland flying boats that were based here during the 1939-45 war.

Dist:0.3km<br/>This was the earliest residential street, started in 1814. The Shipwright Inn is on the corner, painted so as to be noticed by visitors to the nearby Martello Tower.
