Deaton Lysaght Architects converted the Erasmus Smith School into Tipperary County Council area offices. The two-roomed school, a Protected Structure under the County Development Plan, was erected in 1818, funded by the Erasmus Smith Trust. Smith was a Cromwellian adventurer who bequeathed his fortune for the furtherance of education. The school was designed by John Nash (1752-1835), the "architect royal", under the patronage of the Earl of Glengall.
Deaton Lysaght Architects were appointed by 2 adjoining land owners to obtain planning permission for a joint housing development on lands at Athlumney, off the Kentstown Road, Navan. Extensive studies of traffic movements, flood risk assessments, and provision of the necessary drainage services were carried out, and permission was obtained for a scheme of 142 houses, varying from 2-bedroomed townhouses to 4-bedroomed detached houses.
Deaton Lysaght Architects conserved and extended Longford Courthouse for use as a modern, technologically up-to-date building. The Courthouse is a 5-bay, 3-storey over basement building constructed in 1790, with a fine Doric pedimented entrance doorcase, and a central first-floor Venetian window above. The building was extended to the rear in 1860 to provide the main Courtroom and Council Chamber, and later bridewell extensions were added at street level in 1900.
Deaton Lysaght Architects designed a scheme of apartments and shops at Churchview, Rathoath, Co. Meath.
Deaton Lysaght Architects were appointed as architects to this small development of two houses. The developer wishes to use the project as an exemplar to introduce a new system of sustainable construction to Ireland.
