Sacred Heart

The Sacred Heart Altar is a combination of alabaster with a wooden reredos housing a statue of the Sacred Heart. The four inner panels show the instruments of the Passion, viz., the Crown of Thorns, the pillar and scourge, the nails and the Cross. These panels are also inset with likenesses of the various Saints associated with the Parish, with Scotland and with Ireland. So we can see from left to right, St. Margaret, St. Ignatius, St. Patrick, St. Joseph, St. Andrew, St. Mungo, St. Ninian?, and St. Brigid. The outer panels show paintings of two angels. No date is known for the installation of this altar.
