 | | For Donnybrook itself no place is mentioned, but we may assume that Irishtown which furnished the largest population in the district, accommodated some modest tenement to serve the purposes of a temporary chapel for itself and neighbourhood. |
 | | There is a Ciborium this time as well as the large pixis, additional suits of vestments had been procured, and the number of public masses was five - two in Irishtown, two in Donnybrook, and one in Sandymount Convent. |
 | | Donnybrook, anciently Domnach Broc, i.e., Church of Broc, written by mediaeval scribes as Dovenachbroc, or Donabrok, and now Donnybrook, was formerly the designation of a village of very ancient origin clustered round a church founded by a holy woman named Broc, and dedicated, according to tradition, to the Blessed Mother of God. |
