The Irish Church Missions was the missionary wing of the Church of Ireland and England. They were a very rich organisation who felt it was imperative to convert Roman Catholics “from the errors of Popery”. Around the year 1850, they had two houses in Merchants Road and established a school in one of them (known as The Dover School ) where a child might get an evening meal and a night’s lodging after attending a Bible class.
