This , step back in time with us as we share some of our historic schoolhouse building’s unique history.
Established in 1859 as St. Stephen’s Parochial School, the building hosted students for over a hundred years, home to 307 pupils in its prime in 1892.
During the Easter Rising in 1916, the location saw the Battle of Mount Street Bridge, with the school’s desks serving as barricades. Look up at the ceiling next time you’re in our Gastrobar, and you can still see the bullet holes.
Our building’s rich history is just part of its charm - come see for yourself this Heritage Week!
