The High Court has ruled that additional buildings on Moore Street should form part of the National Monument.
Relatives of those who fought in the 1916 rising are celebrating the ruling as a major victory.
In a statement, the Heritage Minister says she'll study the judgement, and regrets that the public will not be able to access 14 to 17 Moore Street during the centenary celebrations, as had been planned.
Numbers 14 to 17 Moore Street were previously designated a national monument by the government for their role in the 1916 Rising.
But the 1916 relatives have long argued that other buildings on the terrace are of historical signifcance.
This afternoon in the High Court, judge Max Barratt ruled that number 10 Moore street and parts of 11, 12 and 13 and numbers 20 and 21 do form part of the national monument.
Judge Barratt also felt that surrounding streets comprised the Moore Street Battlefield.
James Connolly Heron, a grandson of James Connolly said it was an amazing day for campaigners;
The High Court restrained the Heritage Minister from carrying out any works on numbers 13 to 19 – and she will now consider the implications of the ruling.
