Naas Presbyterian Church is a Presbyterian church in Naas, Ireland. [2] [3]
The building is a four- bay structure. The use of limestone, granite and brick create a polychrome brickwork effect, popular at the time. [4]
The church was built in 1868 on the site of the former tholsel, John La Touche of Harristown laying the foundation stone. [5] Rose La Touche worshipped there in 1872. [6]
In 1916, a Boyle's patented air-pump ventilator was installed. [7]
