This is St. Patrick's Church at Saul, just outside Downpatrick in County Down. The site is said to be the oldest associated with Christianity in Ireland, for here St. Patrick consecrated his 'barn' soon after his landing in 432 AD.
St. Patricks, is a Church of Ireland (Anglican) church. They seem to have some of the prettiest churches on the Island, including this one, which is a favourite of mine. The deep blue is Strangford Lough in the distance.
