Proposed development

PROTECTED STRUCTURE: We, the Board of St Patrick's Cathedral, intend to apply for permission for works at St Patrick's Cathedral, South Porch, St. Patrick's Close, Dublin 8 (a protected structure RPS ref. no. 6443 & 6444 and a Recorded Monument DU018-020269). The works will include the following: 1. Removal of the west-facing leaded window with clear and plain coloured glass (WD 04) in the South Porch entrance without damage and in accordance with an approved conservation method statement, to be securely stored within the cathedral grounds, and retained for use in future repair works to similar windows. 2. Installation of a new stained-glass window by the stained-glass artist Thomas Denny, to commemorate those who died, served and lived through, the global COVID-19 pandemic.

What happens next

Permission was granted on 30 Jan 2026. Third parties may appeal within four weeks; after that the permission is final and works can start once a commencement notice is lodged.
