Authors:	South Dublin Libraries - Local Studies
Keywords:	South Dublin Village Walks Tallaght Dominican Church
Issue Date:	5-Sep-2013
Description:	South Dublin Village Walks - Tallaght Step 15: Dominican Church. The oldest section at the back was built in 1882 in the Gothic style and is known as the Father Burke Memorial Church. Father Burke was a famous 19th century Dominican preacher. The modern extension was added in 1969 to cater for Tallaght’s growing population and won an architectural award for the sympathetic way it was incorporated into the older building. It was named for the Dominican Cardinal Michael Brown. The gothic main door of the older church is flanked by two carved monks heads. The one on the right is a representation of Father Burke.
