WHO WAS MARMION?

MARMION COURT ALSO KNOWN AS QUEEN STREET FLATS

It's likely that Marmion Court was named after a figure with Irish Catholic significance.

Given the information I found about Dom Columba Marmion, a Dublin-born Benedictine priest, and the Vatican's recognition of a miracle attributed to him, there is a strong possibility that Marmion Court was indeed named in his honour.

Here's what we know about Dom Columba Marmion (born Joseph Aloysius Marmion):

Irish roots: He was born in Dublin in 1858.
Benedictine monk: He joined the Benedictine Order and became a priest.
Renowned spiritual writer: He was a prolific author and his spiritual writings gained widespread popularity.
Beatification: He was beatified by Pope John Paul II in 2000, a step towards sainthood.
Given his Irish heritage, his contributions to the Catholic Church, and the timing of his beatification coinciding with the likely construction of Marmion Court, it seems highly plausible that the complex was named as a tribute to him.
