Note(s)This church was built on the newly formed Cathal Brugha Street to replace an eighteenth century church which had been destroyed in 1922 during the Irish civil war. It is one of very few new Church of Ireland buildings designed and constructed during the twentieth century in the Irish Free State / Republic.
