1965 – Golf Club House, Howth, Co. Dublin

Built to replace the clubhouse of 1936 and designed by architect Desmond Ri O’Kelly who was a member and captain in 1960-61. O’Kelly drafted various plans based on suggestions from different members. The project drew a significant amount of opposition form some members who regarded it as a crazy extravagance. A fire in early 1985 destroyed much of the interiors including the bar, snooker room and secretary’s office. Largely intact externally, but extended, and now with a more traditional hipped roof.
