Dictionary of Irish Architects 1720 - 1940

Architect, of Dublin and Belfast. Timothy Hevey was born in 1846, the second surviving son of Timothy Hevey, builder, of Belfast, and Martha Alexandra Hevey (née McNeice). He was educated at St Malachy's College, Belfast, before becoming an apprentice in the firm of BOYD & BATT. About the end of 1865 he moved to Dublin, where he became an assistant in the office of PUGIN & PUGIN & amp; ASHLIN ASHLIN . Here he proved himself an accomplished draughtsman: his drawing of the partnership's Augustinian church in Dublin was exhibited at the Architectural Exhibition in Conduit Street, London, in 1866, where it attracted 'a flattering notice' in The Builder.(1) From December 1865 Hevey was a regular contributor - particularly of illustrations - to the Irish Builder.(2) When, at the end of April 1869, he made known his intention of leaving Dublin to set up his own practice in Belfast, the journal announced the fact and gave publicity to the collection which was being made by his friends in order 'to present him with a token of esteem'.(3) The 'testimonial' took the form of 'a very beautiful and valuable case of architectural instruments' which was presented to Hevey at his house in Belfast at the end of July.(4) Hevey continued to supply the Irish Builder with illustrations until December 1870.(5) He exhibited his drawings relatively infrequently: at the North of Ireland Workmen's Exhibition in 1870,(6) at the RIAI conversazione in January 1874,(7) and at the Belfast Industrial Exhibition in 1876(8), but never at the RHA.

In Belfast Hevey rapidly established himself as a builder and architect. In 1873 he entered briefly into partnership with JAMES MACKINNON  JAMES MACKINNON but was practising on his own again by June 1874. By July 1875 he had formed a new partnership with MORTIMER H. THOMSON  MORTIMER H. THOMSON which lasted until his death. Within ten years of his arrival in Belfast, he had become the city's leading Catholic architect, enjoying the patronage of Patrick Dorrian, the Bishop of Down and Connor. He took an active part in the life of the Catholic community and was the architectural representative on a delegation of influential Belfast Catholics which travelled to London in June 1878 to spell out Catholic objections to the proposed Belfast Improvement Bill before a committee of the House of Lords. He was also the favoured architect of the Bishop of Raphoe, James McDevitt, who provided him with a number of commissions in Co. Donegal. His pupils included JOHN JOSEPH MCDONNELL.  JOHN JOSEPH MCDONNELL.

When he was only thirty-three, Hevey's career was abruptly cut short by his death on 29 December 1878 from congestion of the lungs brought on by a severe cold caught on a business trip to Newry.(9) He was survived by his widow Florence Eugenie (née Geret), the daughter of a tutor in Dublin, whom he had married at the Church of Ireland church of St Peter's, Aungier Street, on 7 March 1868, and by a son, who was was born in about 1870.

AAI: elected member, 22 January 1874.(10)
RIAI: elected member 17 April 1873;(11) re-elected 28 November 1878.

Addresses: 6 Hughes' Buildings, Belfast, 1865;(12) 16 Harcourt Street, Dublin, 1866; 19 Ely Place, 1868; 12 Linenhall Street, Belfast, 1869-70; 1 Lombard Street, 1870-1872; 11 Arthur Street, 1873; 13 Eglinton Place, 1874; 4 Alfred Street, 1875 until death.
