Inside the church there is an ornate reredos behind the
altar. The High Altar was erected in 1912 by Mary MacNamara O'Brien in
memory of her husband Laurence C. O'Brien. Mrs Cornelius Mangan of Aughinish
also erected Communion rails in 1912 in memory of her husband but they
are no longer in the church. These details are given on plaques on the
right and left hand sides of the church respectively.
