What is recorded here
Christchurch Deanery rose on Fishamble Street between 1731 and 1733 as the New Deanery for Dean Welbore Ellis. Edward Lovett Pearce shaped the residence, giving the church leadership a worthy home during the Eighteenth century. The building stands as a clear marker of Dublin’s ecclesiastical ambition and architectural confidence.
Bradley (1984, 101-2) mentions an Eighteenth century deanery site at Fishamble Street. This is C Christchurch Deanery which dates to 1731-33: It was the New Deanery for Dean Welbore Ellis.
