St. Audoen's Church, High Street, Dublin

On a lovely warm afternoon in early July, hubby and I were walking down High Street when we decided to drop into St. Audoen's Church because, in all the years we've lived in Dublin, neither of us ever visited this magnificant building which has served the parish since its erection in 1190. 

As there weren't many visitors we opted to just browse ourselves rather than have a tour guide show us around and of course I was delighted when they said there was no objection to taking photographs.  It was really strange walking around a building dating back to the twelfth century, I felt compelled to touch the stone walls in the hope of sensing their secrets.
