A church built on the site. Lewis describes it in 1837 as " “The church or chapel of St. Kevin is a plain edifice, in the form of the letter T, situated to the south of Kevin-street; it appears to have been erected on the site of an ancient chapel dedicated to St.
Kevin.” St Peter’s was enlarged in 1773 . It was then rebuilt between 1863 and by the architect Edward Henry Carson.
This was demolished in 1983 and would have been the biggest of the church of Ireland churches in Dublin. Jacobs took over the site and it is now home to the National Archives of Ireland.

1200 remains were removed to St Luke's in the Combe and placed in the vaults. Any legible slabs were to be stored at St
Lukes but if broken they were to be treated as builders rubble. Also it is believed that 23 of the headstones went to be stored at
St Patricks Cathedral
.
.
The burial ground was where the YMCA building in Aungier Street is now, and in 2003 when it was being built futher burials and headstones were identified. The remains were to be removed to Mount Jerome and the headstones to St Patricks, but this does not seem to have gone ahead. The headstones were on a pallet in YMCA's cricket grounds at Sandymount at one time and may now be stored at St Kevin's (Awaiting confirmation - August 2014)
The reredos was stored at the derelict Lukes in the Coombe which was set on fire in 1986.
