Architectural feature in Glebe (newcastle By., Wicklow Urban Ed) (detached Portion)

Romanesque doorway of uncertain provenance now and placed in the Protestant parish church in Wicklow town. Recorded by the Urban Survey (Bradley and King 1989, 72) as ‘this door of three decorated orders is said to have been brought from Old Kilcullen and re-assembled as the south door of this church. The stone is slaty blue limestone and fragments of a later door (probably 13th century) were inserted at the base’. It is more likely that this doorway comes from a Romanesque church (WI025-012003-) that may be located within the graveyard of the present C of I church in Wicklow town (pers. comm. Chris Corlett).
