Buckley frescoes in Waterford Church

Major renovation work is taking place at the Dominican church in Bridge Street, Waterford.

Scaffolding surrounds the outside of the church and major works are also taking place within the church.

The restoration project is now in its second year and plans are that the work will be finished by spring 2016.

In the sanctuary of the church there are frescoes done by the late Fr Aengus Buckley.

Today is the anniversary of the death of Aengus Buckley, who died in Limerick in 1978. He was 65 years old.

It is also the anniversary of the death of Dominicans Stephen Murray and Joseph Moran.
