Nathan,
My fault. Had a bit more time than I expected last night, amended and
added, and have now 18 images of the place on the undermentioned link.

Just click on the first image, and then click to your right.

>>> Last Friday was Culture Night all over the Dublin area. One of Monkstown's offerings was an open night at the local Church of Ireland parish church which has been standing on the same spot in the village since 1789, but was modified and extended by John Semple in 1831. When the modified church was opened that year, a report in one of the national newspapers said "there wasn't a spot that the eye could rest without pain." However, by the 20th Century, the church was an avowed favourite of the British Poet Laureate Sir John Betjeman who waxed lyrically about its design, decoration, and proportions, and said "the original genius of Semple (is) beginning to be appreciated".

This time, I brought my little Fuji and had the freedom to wander all over the church, and do my own version of Betjeman. It is impressive and here is a shot to start.
