Peter Pearson says

Temple Ville, which stands just to the north of Druid Lodge, is one of Killiney’s few Georgian-style houses, and is historically interesting for once having been used as a church. Indeed, a curious feature of its chimney stack is a small, arched opening which may once have housed a bell. Church services were held here until the opening of St Matthias’s Church, Ballybrack, in 1835. The house is a five-bay, two-storey, non-basement residence with dormer windows. The interior exhibits typical late-Georgian features such as a narrow cornice and six-panelled doors.
