St. James’ Graveyard Feasibility Study

The historic graveyard of St. James’ located on James’ Street, Dublin 8 is being transferred to the ownership of Dublin City Council. A feasibility study was commissioned to look at the graveyard as an accessible public amenity/ historical resource set in the context of the wider Liberties area.

We would welcome all comments and suggestions in relation to the proposed development.

To facilitate this we have put together a blog and short online survey to allow you to give your thoughts on the study.  We would encourage you visit the blog site at http://stjamesgraveyard.blogspot.com/  and then follow the link to the online survey within.  

Any comments can be added to the comment section of the blog. Alternatively, you can email  bslarch@gmail.com or contact Bernard Seymour Landscape Architects, 15 Upper Ormond Quay, Dublin 7 to obtain a paper copy of the survey and blog information.
