New book explores architecture of Irish court houses
Reading time: 1 minute
A new book published by the Irish Architectural Archive (IAA) explores the architecture of Irish court houses from the early 17th century to the modern day.
Ireland’s Court Houses, edited by Paul Burns, Ciaran O’Connor and Colum O’Riordan, was launched in Dublin last night by the Chief Justice of Ireland, Mr Justice Frank Clarke.
According to the IAA, the book examines the evolution of Ireland’s court houses from “a legal, historical and architectural perspective, with a particular focus on the recently completed programme of restoration, upgrading and new construction”.
The book also contains a gazetteer which, for the first time in a single publication, provides a comprehensive listing of court houses across the entire island of Ireland.
The 396-page book with over 550 illustrations is now available for €35.00.
