St. David’s Church Naas. A Brief history by Brian McCabe.

Tradition places Christian worship at St. David’s from the earliest times. A reference to St. Patrick having camped in the Green of the Dun (or fort) of Naas is generally taken to apply to the site of the present church. It has been speculated that the first church on the site may have been dedicated to St. Patrick (or St. Corban) but that this building had fallen into disuse by the time the Anglo-Normans arrived. The granite baptismal font at present preserved in the church may well date from the early Christian era.

It is likely that the 12th century Welsh Norman, William Fitzmaurice, on whom Naas was bestowed by Henry II, rebuilt -or at least rededicated –the church to St. David, the patron saint of Wales. The first specific reference to the church occurs in 1212 when it was included amongst the possessions of the Knights Hospitallers in Ireland. Some portions of the present building as well as the black limestone font at the west end of the church, probably date from this period. The mouldings on two of the windows in the north wall have been likened to those in Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin.

The church evidently remained the property of the Hospitallers during the Middle Ages and it is listed among their possessions in the year 1540. In 1606 it is recorded that the church contained three chantries (separate areas in which prayers were chanted) dedicated to the Holy Trinity, St. Mary and St. Catherine. The priest, or presbyters, of these chantries held substantial tracts of land and property in and around Naas and were nominated by the Provost and Burgesses of the town. In the town’s charter of 1609 the Corporation of Naas was confirmed in possession of the Chantry lands for which they paid £9 yearly “towards the reparation 9f the church of St. Davids”.

Mr. Thomas Drew, RHA, MRIA, writing in the last century, conjectured that the Protestant settlers established in Naas by the Duke of Ormonde in 1648 probably altered the church in some respects, setting up a state pew for the Corporation and high-backed pews in the manner of their time.

“Modem restorers of tile Board of First Fruits and Ecclesiastical Commissioners types did the rest, sweeping away at once the relics of Jacobean state and every vestige up to a period not very remote.”

Further changes followed during the 17th century including the railing in of the formerly open churchyard (1672) and the pulling down of St. Corban’s “Gate” (1680) -the stones of which were used for the repair of the church at a cost of £55 to the then Vicar.

In 1708 a cushion and Common Prayer Book were bought for the use of the church at a cost of £3 and in 1709 one John Mantle was to have £5 per annum, ‘for looking to ye clock and ringing ye Church Bell’ , at 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. daily, holidays excepted! In 1734 £70 was raised by applotlment for repairs to the church at 4 ?d per acre, addressed to the churchwardens, sidesmen and constables of the parish, which was divided into four words. By the end of the century, however, further repairs were necessary and a sum of £ 118 11 s 3d was expended on the roof in 1789; this was, presumably, for complete re-roofing.

Further restoration work was planned in the last century and a plan prepared by the aforementioned Thomas Drew envisaged the replacement of the plaster ceiling by an open timbered roof, restoration of the chancel, removal of the gallery and the re-opening of one of the side aisles (St. Mary’s).

It was also proposed to restore the marble font and two windows in the nave of the church and to purchase stalls and fittings for the re-opened aisle. This latter plan however was never proceeded with.

The Tower.

In 1767 the Sovereign and Portreeves of Naas taking into consideration the ruinous condition of the (then) steeple resolved to: ‘pull down said steeple and build another in such place of the churchyard belonging to said church as should be approved of by

John Bourke, one of the Commissioners of H.M. Revenue, which steeple shall be built after the manner of St. Patrick’s, Dublin, sufficient to contain a ring of eight bells of equal size with the bells of St. Patrick’s steeple and they grant to John Bourke and his heirs £100 per annum for 31 years out of the revenues of the Corporation for said purpose, any residue to be spent on repairing and adorning the church”

This ambitious scheme, however, was evidently never completed. The noted traveller, Austin Cooper who visited the area in 1781 noted that:

‘The church in Naas is very plain, will} the chancel in ruins. A steeple was begun here last year by Lord Mayo and carried only one storey; he has again undertaken the work and beganl it last Monday and when I was here I saw him overseeing the workmen. I visited this place 7th August, 1782, and found only a second storey finished and no sign of the continuance of the work” .

When one bears in mind the inscription Mayo had placed on the second storey viz. RUINAM INVENI PYRAMIDEM RELIQUI (I found a ruin, I left a steeple) tile joke, ultimately, was on the good Earl!

The Bell.
The bell in the present tower is 17th century and, presumably, hung originally in the earlier steeple. It was cast in 1674 and has an inscription in Latin as follows; “OS MEUM LAUDABIT DOMINUM IN ECCLESIA S. DAVIDIS DE NAAS’ , (My mouth shall praise the Lord in the church of S.David at Naas).

The inscription is followed by the initials’ ‘W .C.R.P .’ , .These would seem to refer to William Cory and Roger Purdue, the two principal members of a company of bell founders who came from Salisbury in 1671 to re-cast the bells of St Patrick’s in Dublin. They also cast bells for Kilkenny and Limerick and the tomb of tile elder brother, William Purdue, which was extant in Limerick in tile last century, carried the following inscription:
‘Here a bell-founder honest and true Until tihe resurrection, lies Purdue’ , .

The following headstones and memorials were transcribed during the summer of 1988 for the Naas Local History Group by Brian McCabe, Sean Sourke. David Brown, John O’Kelly and Stephen Collins.
