Item 127 - Plan of Old Capuchin Chapel, Church Street, Dublin

Glass Plate Negative; 8 cm x 8 cm

An plate showing an hand-drawn ‘plan of the Old Franciscan Capuchin Church in Church Street. Taken from Rocque’s map of Dublin, 1773’. The scale is given as 10 feet to 1 inch. This is presumably a plan of the original Capuchin chapel built on Church Street. It was replaced by a church built in 1796 which in turn was replaced by the existing Church of St. Mary of the Angels (built from 1868 to 1881). The plate is by Mayne, Lord Edward Street, Dublin.
