Old Church Street Chapel

Albumen cabinet card images of the exterior and interior of the old Capuchin chapel on Church Street. These are photographs of the chapel constructed in 1796. The building consisted of a nave with two short transepts. The main entrance to the chapel was from Bow Street which was then a busy thoroughfare near Smithfield Market. The foundation stone for the present-day St. Mary of the Angels (which was built on the site of the old Chapel) was laid on 12 June 1868. With a cover annotated by Fr. Angelus Healy OFM Cap.: ‘Photos of old Capuchin Church, Church St., exterior and interior’. Original albumen cabinet card images by Chancellor Studios, 55 Lower Sackville Street, Dublin. The file includes later (and over-sized) reproductions of these prints by E. Brook-Smith, 140 Stephen’s Green, Dublin. It appears that Brook-Smith had a studio at this location from c.1909-19.

Daly took the Total Abstinence Pledge, May 20th 1840’. It is affirmed that this medal was ‘bought from a jeweller, who was going to melt it, for £7’. Reference is also made to a large silver medal presented to the Capuchins by a Miss Gibson from Ballyglass in County Mayo. A cross, also gifted to the Capuchins by Miss Gibson, belonged to the Youghal Roman Catholic Total Abstinence and Religious Society founded on 19 May 1839. Another silver medal has a large green ribbon attached to it and was presented by a Miss Tobin, 13 Killarney Street, Dublin. A smaller silver medal is engraved on the rim: ‘Presented to L.S.

• Newspaper cutting of an article by Michael Kenny titled ‘Discovering the National Museum’, 'Irish Times', 5 April 1981. The article refers to the National Museum’s collection of temperance medals and dies from which the medals were struck. The article reads ‘Given the great numbers enrolled it is hardly surprising that a huge number of medals were struck of widely varying design and legend. A few were struck in gold and silver, but the vast majority in bronze and white metal, particularly the latter. Many contemporary medallists were involved in their production … particularly Isaac Parkes of Dublin …’. With letters to the editor responding to Michael Kenny’s article. 5 Apr. 1981-19 Apr. 1981. Clipping, 5 pp.
