- There was a mass path from Ballynattin through Tom Powers field and straight into The Catholic Church in Drumcannon. Mass was said here in this chapel every morning. This was a very large chapel. It was a very popular church even during the time when the Penal laws were very strictly enforced. The inside of it can be still seen in a fairly good state of preservation. The out-side walls are still standing and are over grown with ivy.
