GENERAL                     All Saints’ Church was built on Carysfort Avenue between1868-1870.  The
parish was created in 1868 from parts of Stillorgan, Kill and Monkstown after disestablishment
(no longer the established church in Ireland).  Hence it was supported by the church and not by
tithes.  Both the church and the vicarage were built in rustic granite in the Gothic style.  A
detached Victorian double fronted house on .4 acre, one of its unusual features are the pierced
wooden cornices to some of the reception rooms.  The staircase also has pierced ecclesiastical
symbols.
