Limerick courthouse gets new lease of life

The Irish Times

Limerick Courthouse, which will be officially reopened this morning , will have an expanded role as a centre for administering justice. Limerick Courthouse is on the banks of the Shannon, overlooked by St John's Castle, and surrounded by other historic buildings from the old centre of the city. The courthouse was completed as the Limerick county courthouse in 1810 by two Limerick architects, Nicholas and William Hannon, and has been continually in use as a courthouse since then.
