Photograph Notes: RC church high up in Hannahstown on the south-western edges of greater Belfast. See also an almost identical picture taken at [[92840]]. Worship began in this area around land consecrated by a Fr Hugh O�Donnell in 1797. Land here was donated by a wealthy Catholic landowner called John Hamill - he originally donated one acre of land to be used as a cemetery; his wife Hannah later donated money for a small schoolhouse which was also used as the church (it is likely that the area became known as "Hannah's Town" as a result of this). The Hamill family have an impressive mausoleum in the churchyard - see [[1951434]]. Some thirty years later St Joseph's was erected here on land donated gratuitously by John McCance, a liberal-minded Protestant landowner of the district. The stone nave on the left is part of the original building which was extensively renovated in 1998. There is a bench mark at the bottom of the stone nave - see [[1951420]].
