Working with Kylemore Abbey and led by Architect Michael Horan, AATE has created a programme of activity focussing on the Conservation works at Kylemore’s Gothic Church. This will include a classroom-based introduction to the Gothic Church building and its heritage; followed by a tour of the site, detailing the conservation works underway. Attendees will have an opportunity to see the impact of these conservation works to the Gothic Church, led by architect and experts Michael Horan & Neil Crimmins, and practical demonstrations with Michael McHale.
