Add PhotosLocated adjacent to the western portion of the Church of SS Peter and Paul's, Clonmel. The parish dates from 1836, prior to which SS Peter and Paul's was part of the old parish of St. Mary's, which included within its area the town of Clonmel and a country district in the counties of Tipperary and Waterford. When St Mary's parish was divided in 1836, one portion received the name SS Peter and Paul's and obtained possession of a church which had been built in 1810 as an auxiliary. SS Peter and Paul's Church was for a long time known as "the new chapel" to distinguish it from the two other churches in town—"St Mary's" and "the Friary Chapel"—which were both old. As late as 1912 it was frequently called "the new chapel," a curiosity of nomenclature, since by then the most ancient church in Clonmel.
