Local Architect William Hague designed this building as a Convent at the request of the Poor Clares

It now houses the County Museum

 

 

 

 

 

 

The class sketched the front door first of Cavan County museum.Some of our class scanned in some of the pictures that we had sketched.     Do you like our colours? This picture belongs to.

 

 

This is the first picture I did when I  got to the museum. It is the front door. There are thirtytwo windows .The museum is three storeys high.

We drew the chimney. We looked through a big window to draw it.We drew it because William Hague designed it and we liked the way it was designed.William hague also designed Butlersbridge Church.

This picture was drawn by Ciara.

These particular pictures were drawn at a distance of a two metres by Kate & Derbhla.

 

We drew these pictures when we looked out the third level window.

The Back of the Building

This is the biggest window of the building. It can be seen at the rear of the building. This window is on the stairway. It looks on to the garden and the fishpond. There is a lovely view of the countryside.

THE BELFRY

On the west gable we noticed a small bell near the roof. I t did not look as if it was built with the gable itself. We drew the little tower and later checked the plans. •It is not in the plan.
