Dedicated in 1844, St Malachy's is the third oldest catholic church in the city of Belfast. It has a cruciform shape and was designed by Thomas Jackson in the ecclesiastical style of the Tudor period. In 1868, the largest bell turret in Belfast was added to the church. The bell was taken away shortly afterwards, due to complaints that its deafening noise interfered with the maturing of the whiskey in Dunville's distillery nearby. The church building underwent extensive refurbishment in 2009. Near to the cache location there is an information board where you can gain a bit more information on the church itself.
