Naul Chapel (DU004-045004-) Door

3D Model

Pointed limestone doorway with cable moulding of 16th-century date reused as the west doorway into the early 18th century chantry chapel of the Hussey family of Westown House, at The Naul, Co. Dublin. The doorway along with the east and south windows were taken from the medieval chapel of Naul that was built by the Cruise family and reused in the building of the chantry chapel in 1710. The chapel stands in the southern quadrant of Naul Graveyard, Co. Dublin. A 19th-century church stood to the north of the chantry chapel and was probably built on the site of the medieval chapel. The 19th century church was demolished c. 1940. The pointed doorway has punch-dressed jambs with a cable or rope-moulding terminating with a decorative chamfer stop with hollowed spandrel. Decorative stone tooling in the form of alternating triangular shaped patterns are visibe on the underside of the doorway arch.
