A huge chip came off it and now the e-string is hanging down below the neck.

2 questions ...

If I were to source a new nut is this a thing that's easy enough to replace, I am not especially handy.

or

Failing that would any of know be able to point me in the direction of someone who could do the repair for me. Kildare/Dublin area.

I could be wrong,but for some nuts anyway,you have to cut it yourself. Might be better to get someone to do it.
 
If you can find a match it'd be easy enough for self repair but with an acoustic I'd want it perfect so I'd get an expert. My suggestion would be some neck guitars or any of the reputable/not too expensive luthiers.
 
try replacing a tabla head...be prepared not only for meticulous accuracy and balance, but be prepared to sweat too, and ache for a week.
fix your nut.
