The churches, chapels and meetings houses of Cork are the bedrock of the city. They represent the finest of architecture; house some of our most treasured art and their development mirrors and records the growth of the city itself. A comprehensive and accessible guide for locals, tourists and historians, this work provides a fascinating insight into the wider history of Cork for well over a thousand years.
