On Merrion Row, look out for the wought iron gates of the recently restored Huguenot graveyard. Last used in 1901 it is evidence that Dublin was once home to many Huguenots who fled to Ireland throughout the 17th and 18th centuries to escape persecution in Europe....

This classical-style church was built in 1827. Its site was donated by James J. Taylor of Swords House. The church has been altered over the years.

A two-storey vestry was added to the rear in 1879 and in 1924 the facade was altered by Francis P. Russell.

Among those interred in the graveyard are some prominent legends in Irish history, most notably A.J. Kettle (1833-1916), the famous Irish patriot who was known as Parnell's "right hand man"....
