North Strand Church, Church of Ireland in North Strand, Dublin
North Strand Church is a Church of Ireland building in Dublin situated at the corner of North Strand Road and Waterloo Avenue. The interior is spacious with traditional religious architectural features throughout.
The foundation stone was laid in 1836, marking the formal establishment of the chapel. The original architectural plans were designed by Joseph Welland for the structure.
The church holds memorials for parishioners who died in wars, visible to visitors throughout the space. These remembrances show the deep connection between the community and the building across generations.
The building sits on a main street corner and is easily accessible on foot. Regular services take place on Sunday mornings, allowing visitors to experience the space during worship if they wish.
On Christmas Eve 1914, David Wilson organised Ireland's first service of Nine Lessons and Carols at North Strand Church. The church also keeps the Great War Roll of Honour from St Barnabas's parish, moved here after that church was demolished in 1969.
