The City and County of Dublin possess a rich body of buildings that
emerged during the Irish medieval period. These buildings fall into
three historical phases: the early medieval or pre-Norman period between
the ninth and twelfth centuries, the Norman colonial period of the
thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, and the late medieval period of the
fifteenth century.
This descriptive and highly illustrated work celebrates and explores the
history and significance of a selected group of these buildings and
their fascinating medieval heritage.
