Dictionary of Irish Architects 1720 - 1940

Architect and engineer, of Limerick. Patrick Joseph Sheahan was born in Kilcornan, Co. Limerick, on 22 May 1893,(1) the son of a teacher at Kilcornan National School, where he received his primary education. He later attended St Munchin's College, Limerick. With a view to becoming a Roman Catholic priest, he then entered the Pallotine College, Thurles, but was forced to abandon his studies on account of ill health. He returned to Limerick, where he taught art and mathematics at St Munchin's College and Art at the Jesuit College. He began his professional career as an architect and engineer in the office of the County Surveyor for Limerick, JOHN HORAN JOHN HORAN , and then worked for ROBERT DE COURCY ROBERT DE COURCY , before setting up in independent practice in 1920. Not long afterwards, together with fellow-painters Michael Hartman, Eamonn O'Carroll and Michael Clancy, he also established a fine art studio on the top floor of the building in which he had his office, a venture which met with considerable success.

In about 1924, Sheahan and TIMOTHY F. CLERY TIMOTHY F. CLERY , formed the partnership of Sheahan & Clery.(2)   In May 1924 Sheahan was apponted architect and engineer to Limerick County Board of Health.(3) When the Board of Health was amalgamated with the County Council in 1942, he became a consultant to both the County Council and to Limerick Corporation. He resigned this position in September 1947.(4) He was also consultant to other local authorities, including Ennis, Co. Clare, Ballinasloe, Co. Galway, and Athy, Co. Kildare.(5) In 1944 his design for a rural cottage won an an award in a competition organised by Country Workers, Ltd.(6)

While the works recorded in the Irish Builderare predominantly local authority projects - hospital work, dispensaries, housing, drainage and sewerage schemes, Sheahan maintained strong links with the Roman Catholic church and was the first Irish architect to be made Chevalier of the Order of St Sylvester, a title conferred on him by Pius II in 1957 for his achievement as an ecclesiastical architect. According to his obituary in the Limerick Leader, he worked for the Bishops of Limerick, Galway, Cloyne, Ferns and Cashel and Emly and also designed churches in Florida, England, Perth (Australia), Nigeria and other parts of Africa.

Sheahan went into semi-retirement a few years before his death but continued to act as adviser and consultant to his nephew Thomas F. Sheahan, who carried on the practice with Clery. He died on 9 October 1965 at the age of seventy-two and was buried in Mount St Laurence Cemetery. He was survived by his wife, Ita, and a son, Desmond. An active member of Sinn Fein in his youth, he remained a keen supporter of Fianna Fail and counted Eamonn de Valera, Sean T. O'Kelly, Donnacadh O'Briain, Senator Pat Ryan and Dan Breen among his friends.

See WORKS (includes works of Sheahan & Clery) for work until 1960 only. As Sheahan is said to have spent his last years in semi-retirement, it is not possible to know how far he was directly responsible for the later works of the practice. Only a selection of the works recorded in the Irish Builder under his name between 1961 and 1965 has been entered in the database.
