Merrion Hall
The Merrion Hall is a former Plymouth Brethren church built by Alfred Gresham Jones and completed in 1863 that was located near Merrion Square in Dublin, Ireland. It has been reconstructed and renovated and is now the Davenport Hotel, but the facade has been retained. History The church was built by Alfred Gresham Jones (1824–1888) for the Brethren. It was completed in 1863 at a cost of £16,000, and had a main hall capacity of 2500 to 3000 persons, plus many more standing.

Until Merrion Hall was built, meetings continued in Aungier Street and at private houses in the city. Merrion Hall was the largest Brethren Gospel Hall ever constructed.
