Appreciation towards McCullough Mulvin Architects for providing the following description:

坐落于基尔肯尼主街道上的圣玛丽厅，其前身是修建于十三世纪的教区教堂——圣玛丽教堂，自20世纪中期以来一直作为教区和共济会堂使用。在基尔肯尼郡议会、环境和遗产部门以及当地政府的协助下，基尔肯尼自治市议会于 2010年购得圣玛丽厅。

St Mary’s Hall, formerly St Mary’s Church, High Street, Kilkenny was founded in the thirteenth century as the parish church of the City. In use as a Parish and Masonic Hall since the mid-20th century, it was purchased by Kilkenny Borough Council in 2010 with assistance from Kilkenny County Council and the Department of Environment, Heritage and Local Government.

这座十字形的建筑在13世纪以石材修建而成，其后在西端增建了一座塔楼。其体量位于一处由坚固石墙围绕的墓地，该墓地于近期作为花园向大众开放，其中容纳了大量中世纪至20世纪的重要陵墓和遗迹。

The building is a cruciform 13th century stone structure with a later tower at its Western end; it sits in a substantial walled graveyard to the rear of High Street. The graveyard has recently been opened as a garden to the public; it contains many important tombs and monuments from the Middle Ages to the 20th century.

教堂的中殿走廊富有深度和复杂性，后来走廊和圣坛遭到拆除和毁损，这种毁坏在暴力的循环中愈演愈烈。可以发现，建筑内部被分割为许多独立的空间和层级，以作为教区教堂使用。该项目旨在重新恢复教堂作为博物馆的功能，保留20世纪的部分建筑干预，以及通过在原有平面中重建北侧走廊和圣坛，同时在不干扰原有墙壁底座的基础上打造全新的内部剖面，从而使中世纪空间的复杂性得以延续。

The church had acquired depth and complexity in monuments and nave aisles, elements which were later shorn off, the aisles removed, the chancel demolished- a shape expanding and contracting, already through a violent cycle of change. As found, the interior was cut up into separate rooms and levels to make a parish hall. The project intention was to restore the church as a museum, retaining some of the 20th century interventions, and to honour its medieval spatial complexity by re-constructing the North aisle and chancel to the original plan but a different internal section and materiality using the base of the original walls in an non-interventive way.

能够俯瞰城市的圣坛重新获得了它在城市景观中的统治地位；其下方的空间成为了用于容纳墓地的地下室。两座新的山形墙以铅面包覆，阳光通过其上方的天窗径直照射到古老的地面。

The chancel room overlooks the town, re-establishing its dominant form in the urban landscape; the space beneath it becomes a tomb-filled undercroft. Both of the new gabled elements are finished in lead, with rooflights directed to levels of archaeology below.
