Proposed design for the completion of Holy Trinity Church, Cork by Edward Welby Pugin (1834-1875) and George Coppinger Ashlin (1837-1921). Print by J. Lewis, 29 Dame Street, Dublin. With a typescript note possibly by Fr. Angelus Healy OFM Cap. referring to the provenance of the proposed design. The note affirms that in June 1877 Ashlin had ‘been employed by Fr. Thomas, Superior of Cork, to examine the foundations of the Church of the Most Holy Trinity, Cork, with a view to completing the front of the Church, and erecting a Tower. … The proposed design shows portions of the Friary at both sides of the Church’. This proposal did not materialize, and the completion of the Church façade, and the erection of the spire was not done until the celebration of the centenary of the birth of Fr. Theobald Mathew OSFC in 1890.

Copy map showing outline of the medieval St. Lawrence’s Chapel near the South Channel of the River Lee. The chapel is bounded by Webber’s Lane (now Morgan’s Lane) and by the ‘ascertained line of the Old City Wall’. The site was seemingly covered by the recently-demolished former Beamish & Crawford Brewery, Main Street South, Cork. The map was probably copied from a nineteenth-century lease map and has the following key to the coloured areas:
‘Land coloured red leased by Carleton & Mitchell to Francis Cottrell, 1st June 1796.
Green and brown leased by Carleton & Mitchell to Francis Cottrell, 1st June 1796.
Land coloured green held by Carleton under lease from Corporation dated May 6th 1706.
Land coloured brown held by Carleton under lease from Prebendary of Christ Church.
Land coloured blue held by Beamish & Crawford, surviving partners of “Beamish, Crawford & Barrett” as shewn on lease [of] Carleton & Mitchell to Cottrell dated 1st June 1796’.

Copy circular letter from Fr. Kevin Moynihan OFM Cap., Provincial Minister, announcing the purchase of Ards House by the Capuchin Order. The letter reads:

'It is more than 350 years since the Franciscans laboured “for the glory of God, and the honour of Erin” in the historic Abbey of Donegal. Now they are returning and let us hope that this new Friary of the Order will be a centre of spiritual force, the influence of which will be felt, not only in Tirconaill, but in the whole of the north of Ireland'.

He also expresses his gratitude to Fr. Aloysius Travers OFM Cap. whose ‘untiring energy’ ensured the acquisition of the property. A note (added by Fr. Angelus Healy OFM Cap.) states that a meeting of the Provincial Definitory on 5 Mar. 1930 confirmed the plan to purchase of Ards House for a canonical foundation. It is also noted that Fr. Colman Griffin OFM Cap. was appointed guardian of the new foundation.
