Now Crumlin College of Further Education, this Girls Vocational School was constructed for the City of Dublin Vocational Educational Committee at a time of modernisation in the education system. A large single store range of classrooms with a higher entrance block. Like their work at Killester, the architects emphasised the entrance with a different architectural treatment – the use of stone, sloped windows, and Gaelic typography being a feature of both.
