DUBLIN 1756 TO 1847

The Dublin of the mid eighteenth century captured by John Rocque in his Exact survey of the city and suburbs of Dublin was a sizeable city for the period, indeed one of the largest in Europe,1 and had a mixture of impressive contemporary features alongside surviving medieval and early modern urban fabric. The modern age was represented in fine public buildings, including the substantial and impressive barracks, the Parliament House and Trinity College. The latter two defined a significant urban space at College Green that was captured in engravings by Joseph Tudor (1753) and others (Plate 4). Some elements with their origins in the previous century were still impressive, such as the Royal Hospital at Kilmainham, the Liffey quays and St Stephen’s Green. The mansions of the wealthier citizens were mainly in the older central areas of the city, though the notable exception was the substantial home of the earl of Kildare on the eastern fringe, later to be called Leinster House. It was a city poised on the brink of change, both political and topographical. Politically, the penal laws were still in place, restricting the involvement in administrative and economic life of those who did not belong to the established church. The Irish parliament was located in the city, the realm of the landed gentry and the aristocracy, while urban administration was largely in the hands of the merchant classes.

Topographically, Dublin had grown in all directions in the preceding century.2 The most recent changes had taken place on the northern fringe of the city, particularly development of the early parts of the Gardiner estate at Henrietta Street and the eastern side of Parnell Square (Map 6). The administrative boundaries at that time, however, were extremely irregular and did not coincide with the expanding built-up area. Around the core, development spilled beyond the administrative boundaries of the city, while to the north-east the limits went as far as the River Tolka at Ballybough Bridge, and to the south-east included Donnybrook and Clonskeagh, as well as a narrow coastal strip that ran to the village of Blackrock (Fig. 1). Adjacent to this area, and outside the jurisdiction of the city’s corporation, lay the three liberties of St Sepulchre’s, Thomas Court and Donore, and the Deanery of St Patrick’s, known collectively as the Liberties, and there were also manors at Kilmainham and Grangegorman to the west and the north. Each of these manors and liberties had its own administrative responsibilities. To further complicate the system, certain functions were carried out by the parishes, whose boundaries coincided with neither the corporation’s nor those of the liberties (Fig. 2).

The Irish parliament in College Green was to become more actively involved in legislating for urban change and development in the later decades of the eighteenth century with both direct and indirect effects on Dublin’s growth. There were an increasing number of acts relating to Dublin. In the 1770s, forty-two acts were passed, with fifty in the 1780s and forty-five in the 1790s. Behind this explosion in legislation was the greater involvement of parliament in the day-to-day affairs and the establishment of ad hoc bodies to administer specific tasks. The improved state of the national finances enabled parliament to vote public funds towards Dublin projects that would assist the economic development of the country while low interest rates encouraged private investment.3 A significant catalyst was the Irish parliament’s determination to avoid having a fiscal surplus as this would have to be sent on to London. Prudent expenditure was the means by which this would be avoided. High- profile projects to benefit from this policy were named Parliament Street and Parliament Square in recognition of the source of the funds. The latter, being the front square of Trinity College, was so named after the three sides of the square were built with £30,000 of government funds allocated in the 1750s.4

A significant body of the legislation relating to Dublin was repeated allocations of funds to various institutions such as the City Workhouse and house of industry, the Hibernian School and the Royal Exchange (City Hall). Other acts related to the supply of corn and coal to the city, which fostered the milling, brewing and distilling industries and helped those manufactories

that had begun to use steam power. Other legislation, however, addressed the administration of the city or measures for improvement. The removal of certain administrative functions from Dublin Corporation into bodies under central government control in the 1780s, such as paving, cleansing and lighting the streets, policing and responsibility for Dublin port, arose from allegations of mismanagement by the corporation.5 As a result ad hoc bodies were created to implement new measures such as the making of wide streets and the improvement of Sackville Street and Marlborough Street, Rutland (later Parnell) Square, Merrion Square and the Circular Road. After the enactment of the Union the flow of acts continued, though not at quite the same rate. Many of the acts passed after 1800 for Dublin concerned policing the city, water supply, streets and local administration.

During the period 1750 to 1850 the population of the city increased, though figures need to be treated with caution. There was a lack of clarity regarding the spatial extent of the city that any population figure claimed to represent6 and the occupancy rates applied to each house varied.7 Despite these problems the general view is that there was a sharp increase in population from the mid 1780s. James Whitelaw’s careful assessment based on his own survey of 1798 and the official work carried out by the conservators of the peace in 1804 suggested that in the immediate aftermath of Ireland’s accession to the United Kingdom in 1801 the city population dropped by 4,192 or 2½ per cent. Subsequent surveys and censuses show that this decline was reversed very quickly and the rate of growth from about 1820 exceeded the average that had pertained over the latter half of the eighteenth century.

The growth in the urban population meant an expansion of the built-up area, rather than mere reconstruction within the existing city. Initial developments from the mid eighteenth century were on the fringes of the city, particularly to the north in the lands owned by the Gardiner family and their neighbours. Rutland Square and North Great George’s Street were completed, along with Cumberland Street North and the beginnings of Gloucester Street (Sean Mac Dermott Street). This period also saw the earliest development by the Gardiner estate of lands west of Dorset Street, with the opening up of Paradise Row (Wellington Street). In south Dublin at the same time, the Fitzwilliam family had laid out Merrion Street and progressed to the northern side of what would become Merrion Square. When Bernard Scalé updated Rocque’s single-sheet plan of the city in 1773 the expansion of the built-up area was such that he had to draw Paradise Row and Denmark Street into the space to the north of the margin of the map; while to the east, a whole strip was added to the four-sheet survey to accommodate the new streets beyond Merrion Street (Map 7).

In the last decades of the eighteenth century the direction of development was driven by the city’s port and the need to facilitate shipping. The provision of a new customhouse (1781–91) downriver from the historic core precipitated a chain of developments (Plate 7). By moving the focus for commercial shipping it permitted the construction of a new bridge (Carlisle, later O’Connell) on the eastern fringe from 1789. By June 1791 work had progressed to the extent that Faulkner’s Dublin Journal remarked that ‘labourers are now at work on the third butment which, it is thought, will be finished in a couple of months. When the fourth is began, vessels can no longer pass, consequently the new customhouse must then be occupied’.8 This in turn led to the laying out of streets on either side of the river to connect to the bridge, and opened the flank of the Parliament House, encouraging the construction of a new façade in the 1780s (Map 9). In a parallel development, opposition to the customhouse scheme was blunted by an agreement to establish a legal complex on the northern bank of the river, which resulted in the building of the Four Courts from 1786 (Map 15). The consequence of the new bridge and associated streets was that a significant proportion of the expansion of the city took place to the north and north-east on the Gardiner estate, and on the Fitzwilliam estate to the south-east. At the same time, commercially-derived development occurred with the construction of the canals circling the city in the 1790s, in the areas around Phibsborough Road on the north side and Grand Canal Basin and Harbour (James’s Street) and Portobello to the south. The building of the customhouse resulted in new

harbours and stores at North Wall (Map 22). The nineteenth century saw the continuation of residential development, though less so on the Gardiner estate, while the provision of new institutions, such as the workhouses and hospitals, led to building on the western side of the city (Plate 3). Towards the middle of the century the arrival of four railways was yet another spur to growth. The cutting through of the first railway line to Westland Row was followed by infilling with modest buildings of the district it overshadowed, while the station itself made a grand architectural statement worthy of its prominent location.

While landlords, property developers and investors were significant in promoting urban growth in Dublin, it was the body known as the Wide Streets Commissioners that had the greatest influence in shaping the city in the latter half of the eighteenth and first half of the nineteenth centuries. This body came into existence as a result of an act of parliament in 1757 that allowed it to open a new street between the bridge at Capel Street and Dublin Castle (Map 8).9 This project was inspired by George Semple, the architect of the bridge, and was part of a larger scheme that included a square between the new street and the castle.10 When the laying out of Parliament Street proved successful, the commissioners were given the task of implementing a revised version of the bigger scheme. Instead of the square, however, building commenced on the Royal Exchange in 1769 at the south end of the street (Plate 1). Armed with further acts of parliament, the commissioners undertook the major task of widening important streets in the city. This began with Dame Street, to provide a better route between Dublin Castle and the parliament in College Green, as well as to the newly rebuilt College Green face of Trinity College (Map 24). Within the old city the commissioners improved Skinner Row (Christchurch Place), High Street, Cornmarket and Thomas Street, but the main thrust of their work lay to the east, with the formation of streets and work on principal existing thoroughfares such as Abbey Street and Nassau Street (Fig. 3). Some of the initiatives improved access to the new customhouse, including Eden Quay and Lower Abbey Street, while others improved connectivity and fostered the development of private estates (Map 10). The commissioners were given responsibility for approving layouts that were provided by developers and in many instances for the design criteria for the buildings that were to be erected along the streets.

The Wide Streets Commissioners was not the only body with responsibility for streets. Statutes in 1763 and 1777 established commissioners to build the Circular Roads and to fund the project through tolls.11 Another commission was established by an act of 1771–2 with responsibility for paving, lighting and improving Sackville (later O’Connell) Street along with Marlborough Street and the streets in between.12 The third project carried out by a commission was the creation of Rutland (Parnell) Square, which was partly associated with the development of the Rotunda Hospital and its gardens. The lighting and fencing of the square were at the expense of the inhabitants, though they were exempt from paying towards the lighting of the city in general. In recognition of the importance of the lying-in hospital and its inability to raise sufficient funds through its gardens, assembly rooms and other attractions, a tax was imposed on sedan chairs throughout the city and its environs, which was allocated to the running of the hospital.13

In the first half of the eighteenth century most building was undertaken by developers of private estates that covered a relatively small area of the city. This trend continued into the second half of the century with projects by the Leeson family in the Leeson Street area and the Archdall family at North Great George’s Street. Surviving maps from private surveyors indicate a range of clients and show blocks of individual plots with house numbers, tenants, landuse and measurements detailed (Maps 13, 14).14 Significant as they were individually, the impact of many of these property owners was minor in comparison with the activities of the two dominant estate families of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries — Gardiner and Fitzwilliam. The Fitzwilliams were fortuitously placed to take advantage of the city’s shift eastwards, with the family landholding stretching south-east from Merrion Street. In the case of the Gardiners it was not so much luck as judgement, as

there was no family estate and the north-city land that they developed was acquired over a protracted period. The distinction between the work carried out by Luke Gardiner in the latter part of the eighteenth century and that achieved by the Wide Streets Commissioners became blurred, with the commissioners creating new streets such as Frederick Street North, Gardiner Street and Abbey Street Lower on the Gardiner estate.15 One further significant block of eastward expansion was the land on either side of the Liffey that was reclaimed from the sea. While little residential development occurred on the northern lots, on the southern side of the Liffey substantial areas were laid out as streets in the aftermath of the opening of the Grand Canal Dock in 1796 (Map 19).

Streets were laid out well in advance of their development. The most ambitious scheme was the Gardiner Street complex of the 1790s west of Dorset Street (Fig. 4). Gardiner Street is the longest Georgian street in the city at almost 1,200 m, longer than Fitzwilliam Street. From its northern end it crossed Dorset Street and led via Synnott Place and Elizabeth Street to the central focus of Royal Circus (Map 12). Mirroring this on the southern side of the circus were Blessington Street, Frederick Street North and Sackville Street, leading back to the river. The plan managed to incorporate the pre-existing Eccles Street, which fed across Dorset Street into Temple Street via Hardwicke Place. This scheme was ambitious in scale and intention, incorporating existing streetscape elements to create a unified set-piece. In so doing, it managed to cater for a variety of potential householders, with the Royal Circus intended as the most grand of spaces with the most substantial houses.16 By contrast, on the south side of Dublin the Fitzwilliam estate was developed incrementally, with Fitzwilliam Square proceeding once Merrion Square was almost complete, to be followed by Wilton Place and Warrington Place.

The large number of streets that were laid out in advance of development assumed that population increase would continue, as would the prosperity that accompanied it. In the years immediately after the union with Great Britain in 1801, this proved not to be so. Thomas Campbell’s map shows the city in 1811 and depicts areas of streets with no buildings. This includes Royal Circus, Elizabeth Street, Mountjoy Street, Sherrard Street and Portland Street, while Blessington Street, Gardiner Street Upper and Belvedere Place were only partly developed. On the Fitzwilliam estate the picture is similar on Fitzwilliam Street, Fitzwilliam Square, Pembroke Street, Wilton Place and Mount Street Upper. This pattern is repeated to the north of the Fitzwilliam Estate in St Mark’s parish, where streets such as Pearse Street, Erne Street, Hanover Street and Cardiff’s Lane seem almost devoid of development (Map 17). Over the next two to three decades, however, the majority of these streets were built upon, though the proportion still under-developed at the time of the first published Ordnance Survey large-scale town plan in the 1840s was significantly lower in the Fitzwilliam estate than elsewhere. In the Gardiner estate, Royal Circus and Elizabeth Street were abandoned, though there are remnants evident on the Ordnance Survey town plan of 1847 (Map 4).

Dublin’s growth in the early years of the nineteenth century came to an end in the 1830s, although this is masked in census data by the alteration of the municipal boundary.17 This was reflected in the progress of residential development. Hatch Street had been laid out in the 1790s but by 1847 had not progressed except at the eastern end, while by 1843 Wellington Square had been created on its southern side. At around the same time to the south, the area between South Circular Road and the Grand Canal was laid out. Development was slow to take off. Several streets near Portobello were created, but activity paused — four houses had been built in Stamer Street by 1847 but no more appeared for many years. At Grantham Street, Heytesbury Street and Synge Street progress was barely made while Wellington Square was abandoned. In the Fitzwilliam estate, the development of Wilton Place on the former Vaux Street began in 1842 but came to a halt after six houses were built, never to be completed. Competition from the adjacent townships of Pembroke and Rathmines is one possible explanation, but doubtful as the Fitzwilliam estate on the Pembroke side of the Grand Canal at Wellington Road and Waterloo Road also paused in the late 1840s, probably owing to the economic shock resulting from the Great Famine (Map 25).

The shaping of Dublin between the mid eighteenth and mid nineteenth centuries was not all the result of grand schemes devised by state-sponsored bodies and private estate owners and property developers. Much of the new fabric was small-scale and dispersed within the existing built-up area. Small streets, courts and lanes were built, many of them too insignificant to appear on medium-scale maps of the city. In some cases these bore the names of their developers, such as Phillips’s Lane and Morgan Place. Increasingly, as certain sectors of the city declined in the nineteenth century, rear gardens of some larger houses were built over and were later to gain notoriety as slum courts.

As population increased in the latter part of the eighteenth century the provision of infrastructure had to keep pace with and, if possible, improve living standards. One of the major problems was the supply of piped water. The system from the River Dodder that dated from the thirteenth century had been augmented with the City Basin at James’s Street in the early eighteenth century, followed by the provision of a pumping engine at Islandbridge to bring water from the Liffey in 1745.18 The possibility of drawing further water from the Liffey was considered, though this was complicated by the need to pump water up a considerable height to the City Basin to feed the water by gravity. The timely arrival of the Grand Canal, bringing clean drinking water from the midlands, seemed to offer a better alternative as it was proposed to terminate it next to the City Basin. The Grand Canal Harbour near James’s Street was completed in 1785 and the corporation’s water committee agreed

to pay the canal company for a supply of water for the city. Twelve water pipes led from the City Basin into James’s Street, from where water was distributed throughout the city. Water mains crossed the bridges to the northern suburbs and there were occasional problems when a bridge was damaged in floods, severing the water mains. Distribution through the expanding city was improved when the Grand Canal brought its circular line as far as Ringsend while the Royal Canal also arrived in the city, each enabling the provision of reservoirs, at Portobello and Blessington Street respectively. The mains fed water from these reservoirs along Stamer Street and Lennox Street in the south and Blessington Street in the north. A water main from Portobello to Fumbally Lane was used solely for a local distillery.19 Fountains provided a drinking water supply in the streets and these were gradually established, but not evenly spread, throughout the city. The greatest concentration was to be found where there were fewer private wells, such as in the Liberties, with a smaller number elsewhere in the north city (Map 2). The more affluent south-eastern quadrant had virtually no fountains, with the odd exception such as those at the four corners of St Stephen’s Green and by the Grand Canal at Warrington Place.

A parallel problem was the removal of human and animal waste, as well as refuse from the markets and slaughter houses. Scavengers were engaged and, as it was largely compostable, waste could be sold to farms outside the city as manure. Stable lanes and other access routes at the rear of streets permitted the removal of waste without going through the front of houses. Cess pits, where they existed, were emptied in this way, as were ash pits, which combined ashes from domestic grates with human waste from privies. In some streets, such as parts of Belvidere Place, Sherrard Street Lower and Portland Street North, houses were of sufficient quality to have stable lanes, but not stables, allowing for the discreet removal of waste. Scavengers had yards where the material collected was stored. Rocque’s map depicts a number of mounds to the south of Island Street, which, tellingly, was then known as Dunghill Lane (Map 5). These scavengers’ yards were located in the industrial, or less salubrious, parts of the city, such as Marrowbone Lane, New Street, Sir John Rogerson’s Quay and Grangegorman. Sewers, where they existed, were for the removal of rainwater from the streets and adjacent areas. Virtually none of the streets in the southern part of the Liberties had any sewers.20 Many of the rivers that ran through the city, including the Poddle, the Glib, the Steine and the Bradogue were used to remove waste. With the advent of water closets in the late eighteenth century matters improved within the houses that possessed them, but worsened in the city at large. These facilities greatly increased the volume and liquidity of the waste to be managed and in the absence of a foul sewer system they often discharged to the rivers, ultimately polluting the Liffey.

Prior to 1784 responsibility for lighting the streets and for paving and cleaning them moved periodically between private contractors, parishes and

commissioners.21 In that year these tasks were given by parliament to a single body — the Directors and Commissioners for Paving, Cleansing and Lighting the Streets of Dublin.22 This commission provided water fountains and in 1786 the provision of lighting was extended to the Circular Roads. From 1790 its duties also included making and repairing streets and from 1807 it had the authority to take down buildings in order to remove narrow sections of streets.23 The commissioners were investigated in 1826 and significanct abuses were found, following which another board was appointed.24

The lighting of streets was by oil lamps, each individually refilled and lit until the early 1820s when the Dublin Coal Gas Light Company, the Hibernian Gas Light Company and the Dublin Oil Gas Company were established.25 An agreement between the Dublin Coal Gas Light and the Hibernian divided the city with the former (based at Grand Canal Quay) lighting the south side and the latter (based at Seville Place) the north side. The three companies were taken over by the United General Gas Company, which closed the Seville Place works and the Dublin Oil Gas Company’s works in Pearse Street and concentrated its production on a substantial site at Grand Canal Quay and Pearse Street.26 The establishment of the Alliance Gas Company in 1835 at Sir John Rogerson’s Quay confirmed the concentration of Dublin’s gas production in a restricted area, close to the port facilities for the importation of coal.

The safety and convenience of the citizens of Dublin required more than just street lighting. Law and order were kept, at least in theory, by a system of constables during daytime and watchmen at night. Rocque’s map shows the locations of seventeen watch houses in 1756 — six to the north of the Liffey and eleven to the south. In addition, there were police offices in each parish. Various legislative changes to the organisation of the police system changed the number of police districts in the city, leading to variations in the number and distribution of stations over time, though the watch houses remained more static.

As the capital city Dublin had the highest courts in the land, which in the middle of the eighteenth century were adjacent to Christ Church Cathedral (Map 16). They provided inmates for the four courts marshalsea, which was a debtors’ prison, and Newgate prison in the south tower of the old city gate, which held all other convicts, and both were close to the courts. The city corporation had extensive judicial functions for local cases through the lord mayor’s court and sheriff’s court, though these did not have their own courthouses. The city’s prisons included the sheriff’s prison and the City Marshalsea, both for debtors and located in the medieval city. The poor conditions pertaining at Newgate led to the building of a prison in Oxmantown north of the Liffey, in Green Street in the 1770s, and this became the focus for the lesser courts with the subsequent construction of a courthouse, sheriff’s prison and debtors’ prison (Map 11). The main courts were also relocated outside the medieval core in

the 1790s when they were moved to their present-day site on Inns Quay (Plate 6). The relocation of judicial facilities north of the river was reinforced by the building of the Smithfield Penitentiary in the opening years of the nineteenth century, though the construction of the Richmond Bridewell in 1813, for female offenders, on South Circular Road ran contrary to the trend. Dublin also had local courts and prisons, as the various manors outside the city limits had judicial responsibilities. The courthouse for the archbishop’s manor of St Sepulchre, whose jurisdiction stretched well beyond the city, was rebuilt in New Bride Street in the 1830s. The smaller manors were less well provided for and the liberty of St Patrick’s deanery, which had ceased to hold courts for small debts by the early nineteenth century, become a sanctuary against the payment of such debts.27 On the northern fringe the manor of Grangegorman held its courts in ‘a common public house to the scandal of the administration of justice’.28

Dublin’s single military barracks, to the west of the city on the northern bank of the Liffey, built at the beginning of the eighteenth century in Benburb Street, had turned that district into a military quarter. Associated with it were the magazine fort in the Phoenix Park, an artillery ground to the east of the barracks and a barrack hay yard to the north on Arbour Hill. Not far away, at Chapelizod, the Royal Irish Regiment of Artillery was quartered, and the Phoenix Park was used as a training ground and for military reviews (Map 18).29 The military presence in the area intensified with the enlargement of the Royal Barracks in the late 1760s, followed by the erection of a new barracks at Islandbridge for the artillery regiment in the 1790s. The wars with France and the political tensions of the later 1790s swelled the military presence. Troops were also dispersed throughout the city, though the exact locations were driven more by what properties were available than tactical reasons.30 The barracks was enlarged by diverting Arbour Hill to the north, taking in the extra land between the barracks and the new road line, and at the same time retaining land north of the realigned Arbour Hill for a military hospital and prison (later Old Provost Prison) (Map 17). Buildings were taken over as temporary barracks in the city. These included the former home of the earl of Aldborough, North Strand, and Annesley House in Marlborough Street, the disused customhouse in Essex Street East and other buildings in Mary Street, Henry Street, Cork Street and elsewhere. These were relinquished following the end of the war in 1815. A major phase of barracks building began at the beginning of the nineteenth century with the erection of Richmond Barracks, Portobello Barracks, the Pigeonhouse Fort and Beggarsbush Barracks, all on the outskirts of the southern side of the city. The new permanent barracks ensured that the troops were now dispersed, albeit around the southern fringes of the city leaving the Royal Barracks as the only one north of the Liffey.

The postal system was a factor in the development of commerce in Dublin and nationally. The distribution of mails within the city and its environs was facilitated by the establishment of the Penny Post in 1765, based in the post office in Dame Street and a network of receiving houses spread throughout the district, which was subsequently enlarged to cover a four-mile radius from the city.31 This popular system had expanded to more than fifty receiving houses by 1812. The post office moved to College Green in 1771 and it was here that the General Post Office in Ireland was established as a facility independent of London in 1784.32 Later in the 1780s the service began to use mail coaches on the trunk routes terminating at a hotel or coaching inn. When the growth of the postal system necessitated the construction of a new General Post Office in 1814 its location on Sackville Street was largely driven by the need for ease of access to the various mail coach termini (Plate 5). By 1829 the building was too small. The Wide Streets Commissioners offered a site in D’Olier Street on which to rebuild, but the General Post Office preferred to remain on its existing site.

The relief of the poor in Dublin, such as it was, was in the hands of public institutions and, to some extent, parishes down to the late eighteenth century. Charitable bodies existed but were mainly involved with the running of hospitals. From the beginning of the eighteenth century the city looked after its poor, its foundlings and those suffering from mental illness through the agency of a workhouse and this was situated on the western fringe, close to the Royal Hospital, and St Patrick’s and Dr Steevens’s Hospitals. The house of industry opened in Brunswick Street North in 1773, shifting some of the public institutions from the south-west to the north-west (Plate 10). The house of industry grew in the early nineteenth century, with the addition of two fever hospitals, a chronic medical hospital and a surgical hospital, together with a dispensary and accommodation for the mentally ill. This became a substantial institution, accommodating more than 500 patients on the campus at Brunswick Street over and above those in the workhouse.33 Adjacent to this complex the Richmond Lunatic Asylum was built in 1810–15 on a large scale, bringing another 300 people into the area.34 The reconstruction of the workhouse in the early 1840s, when it was reconstituted as the North Dublin Union, brought 2,000 bed places into the complex, while emergency accommodation provided in 1847 during the famine added almost 1,500 more beds making this a major centre of institutional care. The South Dublin Union was also established immediately prior to the famine and the old workhouse there was reconstructed to house 2,000 inmates. The emergency accommodation here

during the famine held another 360 persons, fewer than the northern union, but nonetheless this was a second substantial centre.35

In addition to the hospitals associated with the workhouses and the house of industry, parishes could open their own hospitals though few of them did, with only the poorer districts becoming involved in such initiatives. The hospital established by the parish of St Catherine amalgamated with that attached to St Nicholas’s parish, but with the fall in demand for hospital places in the Liberties it relocated to St Mark’s in the east of the city, which was a poor but growing parish.36 The provision of facilities for the poor by charitable organisations was more evenly distributed than those of the public institutions. Most were small in scale, at least when first founded, and managed to stay on or near their original site when they expanded or were rebuilt. Such was the case with the Meath, Mercer’s and St Vincent’s Hospitals and the charitable infirmary in Jervis Street. Some others, like Sir Patrick Dun’s Hospital and the fever hospital in Cork Street, were built on the outskirts of the city though in locations that were soon subsumed into the built-up area. Certain charitable organisations were locally based by necessity, such as almshouses and dispensaries, and were dispersed throughout the city and on a modest scale. A valuation carried out in 1828 gives an insight into the standard of housing and living conditions in the city at this time (Map 21).

School provision was in the hands of the religious authorities and charities rather than the public authorities and was closely tied to the parish, both established church and Roman Catholic. The various non-conformist groups also had their own schools. As many of these were intended for the poor it is not surprising that a number were based in the older parts of the city such as around Dame Street and Aungier Street. A number of Quaker businessmen in the Liberties established schools in School Street at the end of that century that came to provide for substantial numbers on a non-denominational basis.37 With the advent of the Catholic religious teaching orders, provision of education increased dramatically. Most of these schools were located within easy reach of the poor that they were intended to serve, with the earliest Christian Brothers’ school being recorded in Mill Street, the Liberties, in 1824. There were also many private schools, mostly small-scale operations in domestic houses with some offering boarding facilities. Anxious to attract a respectable and fee-paying clientele, they tended to be located in affluent areas. One of the larger and more successful, though short-lived, was the Feinaiglian Institution, which acquired the former mansion of the earl of Aldborough and at its peak had 300 pupils (Map 23).38

Places of worship and religious assembly were to be found throughout the city, with each denomination having its own particular geography (Fig. 5). The Church of Ireland, as the established church, had its parishes and associated churches spread throughout the city. Despite the dramatic increase in population in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, only two new city Church of Ireland parishes were established — St George’s, which served developments on and around the Gardiner estate in the north-east, and Grangegorman to cater for the expanding area around the public institutions in the north-west. Other growing areas were served by the parishes that had been established in the early eighteenth century, though the increase in population did necessitate the building of a number of chapels of ease. These included St Stephen’s in Mount Street Crescent and two in St Mary’s parish. St George’s got a new parish church in 1802–13, relegating the original church to a chapel of ease. The Anglican community was further served by various extra-parochial churches, many of which were built in the developing suburbs on and around the Gardiner estate, including Charles Street Great, North Strand and Trinity Church, Gardiner Street Lower. The expanding southern suburbs had their free churches, including St Matthias’s in Adelaide Road, while the public were also free to attend the chapel of the Magdalen Asylum in Leeson Street. Within the old city the parish churches of St Michael’s and St Nicholas’s Within went

out of use and were ruinous by the early nineteenth century, the latter being demolished for the most part in 1837. It was not all decline in this district, however, as the parish church of St John the Evangelist was rebuilt in the late 1760s, while a free church opened in Swift’s Alley in 1835.

The Catholic community entered a vigorous phase of church building in the latter half of the eighteenth century as penal restrictions were eased and confidence grew. Among the new legal measures was an act of 1778, which allowed Catholics to take leases for 999 years and, significantly, was introduced to parliament by Luke Gardiner, who was actively developing his Dublin estates at the time.39 The earliest phase of construction was the rebuilding of existing churches such as St Catherine’s Chapel in Meath Street and St Paul’s Chapel on Arran Quay. It was well into the nineteenth century before the rate of church building accelerated. The earliest activity was in the well-established districts — St Michan’s in Anne Street North and St Michael’s and St John’s in Exchange Street, though new construction soon spread to the fringes at Gardiner Street, Westland Row, James’s Street and Seville Place. At the same time, religious orders were establishing convents, monasteries and schools and moving from private dwellings to larger buildings erected specifically for their use. The Carmelite Sisters in Warrenmount House were in the heart of the Liberties; the Carmelite Fathers in Aungier Street on a site as near as they could manage to their long-lost medieval foundation. The northern perimeter of the city was well served by religious orders, such as the Dominicans in Denmark Street, the Sisters of Charity in Gardiner Street Upper and North William Street, and the Christian Brothers in North Circular Road. In contrast, few religious houses were to be found in the south-eastern sector, apart from those in Baggot Street Lower (Sisters of Mercy) and St Stephen’s Green (Sisters of Charity and Loreto Sisters).

The principal non-conformist group in eighteenth-century Dublin were the Presbyterians, who had ten meeting houses by the mid century. Over time some of these congregations amalgamated with others, while the split in the church that arose from the political situation in Scotland was reflected in the presence of the Burgher Secession congregation in Skinner’s Alley before moving to Chancery Place in 1773 and, later, the Anti-Burghers in Mary’s Abbey. For the most part, the Presbyterians built their places of worship on the northern side of the city in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the notable exception being a location in Adelaide Road. The Methodists had established their first Dublin meeting houses in the Liberties in about 1750, before penetrating north of the river. A multiplication of Methodist meeting houses was spurred in part by the split into Primitive Methodists and Wesleyan Methodists, which lasted for about fifty years from around 1810. The re-uniting of these two groups brought further reorganisation of the places of worship. The Jewish community occupied premises in Crane Lane (c. 1700) and Marlborough Street (1762), which closed in c. 1788 without replacement until 1822 when a synagogue was established in Wolfe Tone Street, later moving to Mary’s Abbey. Various smaller Christian groups also had a presence, some of them short-lived, others for longer. These included the Lutherans, Baptists, Anabaptists, Moravians, Quakers, Welsh Methodists and Walkerites. As with the Catholic churches and convents, the non-conformist denominations and the Jewish community were notably absent from the Fitzwilliam estate, their presence in the south-eastern quarter of the city being confined to a small area between the southern side of St Stephen’s Green and Adelaide Road and the docklands area around Townsend Street and Sir John Rogerson’s Quay. The paucity of non-Church of Ireland churches would have reflected the predominance of members of the established church among the residents of the Fitzwilliam estate, while other denominations were catered for by the existing churches nearby. When the Fitzwilliam, later Pembroke, estate expanded beyond the Grand Canal, churches of other denominations were provided, notably the Catholic church in Haddington Road.

The burial of Dublin’s dead in the late eighteenth century almost exclusively took place in the parish churchyards of the established church. Some religious groups had their own burial grounds: for example, the Society of Friends (Quakers) in St Stephen’s Green and Cork Street, the Huguenots in New Street South and Merrion Row, and the Jews beyond the city limits at Fairview. Some newly constructed Catholic churches had burial vaults, such as St Mary’s Pro-Cathedral (1826) and St Andrew’s, Westland Row (1834). The first burial grounds other than churchyards had opened in the seventeenth century owing to shortage of space for graves on the original sites. This continued when St George’s parish opened a burial ground beyond the city boundary, in Whitworth Road, in 1817. The major move away from parochial churchyards came with the opening of Goldenbridge cemetery in 1829 and this pioneered the establishment of larger graveyards outside the city, most importantly at Glasnevin in 1832.40 The new convents and monasteries led to the provision of small cemeteries for these communities, though few were within the city other than the Carmelites at Warrenmount and the Sisters of Charity in North William Street.

The economic structure of late eighteenth- and early nineteeth-century Dublin was complex and diversified. The most important manufacturing district was undoubtedly the Liberties, which was long associated with the weaving of silk and poplin. Directories of the later eighteenth century list velvet, linen, oiled silk, flannel, fustian, poplin, tabinet and woollen manufacturing, most of which was concentrated in the Liberties (Appendix). By the end of the eighteenth century and into the twentieth century substantial spinning, weaving, dyeing and textile printing mills were established in more rural areas — particularly on the River Dodder and its tributary, the Owendoher.

based production in Ulster diminished Dublin’s textile industry, where a linen hall had been established in the early eighteenth century and was enlarged in 1781–4. The business declined and no linen manufacturing is listed in the city by the 1820s. Cotton manufacturers and spinners continued in business but many of these were the Dublin offices of mills outside the city, such as Pim Brothers in South Great George’s Street whose mills were at Harold’s Cross, and Samuel Moss of High Street who had his cotton mill at Kilternan. The small-scale weaving of other fabrics continued, particularly woollens, and the finished fabrics were stretched to dry in the tenterfields south of Weavers Square, off Cork Street, as depicted by Rocque.41 This process was weather dependent, as was the drying of the warp prior to weaving, until the opening of the Stove Tenter House provided an indoor drying facility in 1815.

Brewing and distilling were also long established and small-scale local industries (Fig. 6). By the middle of the eighteenth century there were about forty breweries recorded in Dublin, a reflection of the use of beer as a table drink, which was safer than water since bacteria tended to be killed in the brewing process. Distilling required more equipment but could be carried out on a reasonably small scale and there were almost thirty distilleries in Dublin by the 1780s. New canals permitted the bulk movement of grain and this, boosted by a series of acts of parliament that encouraged the supply of corn to Dublin for flour and bread, drew the raw materials for distilling into the city. Brewers, distillers and maltsters could avail themselves of the incentives directly, without having to purchase through merchants.42 In the early years of the nineteenth century the number of distilleries in Dublin began to increase, largely arising from the economies of scale resulting from increased mechanisation and bulk transport. Breweries decreased as a consequence — having been more numerous in the first instance. The smaller breweries closed as the more successful prospered. Many breweries grew to substantial sizes, so that while small brewers such as Brenan and Guinness, both in James’s

Street, had premises with rateable valuations of £35 and £60 respectively in 1847, eight out of the thirteen breweries in the city had valuations above £100 and four of these in excess of £200, Watkins being the largest at £400. The big distilleries were Jameson’s in Bow Street and Marrowbone Lane, each valued at £400, Power’s in John’s Lane West at £450 and Roe’s in Bonham Street at £520.43 The latter was a consolidation of two distilleries owned by the family onto a single site, the other having been at Bellevue (Map 14). Two-thirds of the breweries and distilleries were located in the Liberties, which was both the traditional manufacturing area owing to its many watercourses and had access to the Grand Canal for transportation and further water supply.

While textile manufacturing, brewing and distilling were the city’s dominant industries, they were not the only ones. Many older industries still remained, including tanning, which had a large concentration in the Liberties, particularly at Watling Street, James’s Street, Cork Street and Dolphin’s Barn. Flour milling and baking were important, though milling was also undertaken outside the city to utilise water power at the River Dodder and elsewhere. In the late eighteenth century windmills made a return to the city, particularly with the tall cones that rose above buildings on the flow of the wind (Plate 6). The Roe’s distillery mill at Watling Street survives today and is similar in form to the one in Robinson and Fayle mills that gave Windmill Lane its name. Another at North Wall burned down in 1810. Heavier industry was also to be found and a number of iron foundries grew up in the late eighteenth century, some in the traditionally industrial zone of the Liberties and others spread around the inner city. Such heavy industries would not have been permitted in the newly-developed estates, which were predominantly residential. As a result they were located in the older parts of the city. Some of the more polluting industries such as lime burning and brick-making were banned in the eighteenth century.44 The lime burners listed in the nineteenth-century directories may have been the city offices for manufactures that took place

elsewhere. The erection of glass factories was banned by an act of 1783–4 and the Wide Streets Commissioners bought a glass works in Mary’s Lane to close it down while many of the others managed to survive.45 Some of the more noxious industries were relocated at a distance from the urban core at North Wall/East Wall. These included two glass works, a vinegar works and a vitriol works. Others went to Ringsend beyond the city limits. The importance of the horse as a means of transport meant that there were large numbers of businesses engaged in related activities. Saddlers and harnessmakers, forges or smithies and coachmakers were distributed throughout the city, as were livery stables and stables attached to private residences. Horse feed would have made up a significant element of the business of corn factors and millers, while the scavengers had the task of keeping the streets clean.

Dublin’s major problem as a trading centre had always been the inadequacy of the Liffey as a port, due to a large sandbank at the mouth of the river that left a depth of less than a metre at low spring tides.46 As vessels got larger in the nineteenth century, this became a more serious problem. The South Bull Wall was built between 1716 and 1795. In the early 1790s a harbour was made at Pigeonhouse to provide a landing place for passengers without ships having to cross the bar.47 While this was adequate for passengers and mails, it was not suited to bulk freight traffic. Despite the problem of the bar, the Ballast Board, as the body responsible for the port, developed floating docks with copious storage buildings to the east of the customhouse in the early years of the nineteenth century. Together the docks and two canals significantly improved port facilities, though they could only be accessed at certain tides and in favourable weather. The development of the port was made possible by the construction of the North Bull Wall, running south-eastwards from Clontarf and completed in about 1824.48 This enabled the flow of the river and tides to scour out the sand bar and allowed the docks and quays to accept modern ships of large size (Map 1, Plate 10). Before this vessels of 200 or 300 tons frequently had to discharge part of their load in order to enter, whereas in later years the port accommodated the Great Eastern of almost 19,000 tons gross.49

Trade within the city was carried on in the local markets. These, rather than retail shops, provided most of the daily food requirements for the populace. Dublin was well supplied with markets; some, like Ormond Market, had a fine and large site, with areas of the market specialising in specific goods such as eggs, butter, fish and root vegetables. Castle Market was also a formalised space with regular permanent stalls but had to be relocated in 1783 to facilitate the widening of Dame Street. Other markets were less formal and operated from stalls set up along the margins of a street, such as the Glib Market in Thomas Street and the market in Benburb Street opposite the entrance to the Royal Barracks. Smithfield was the focus of cattle and sheep markets and of

a separate hay and straw market. In the nineteenth century wholesale markets for fish were established at Arran Street East and for vegetables at Mary’s Lane, while coal markets were located on the south quays where coal ships from Whitehaven and other ports docked.

During the eighteenth century numerous shops were to be found throughout the city. Traders such as booksellers, clothiers, glovers, goldsmiths, hatters, hosiers, linen drapers, tobacconists and vintners were to be found in Bridge Street, Capel Street, High Street, Grafton Street and many other locations. One rather unusual shopping area was the piazza in Essex Street, a row of purpose-built shops behind a colonnaded walkway.50 More common were the regular shops depicted in some of James Malton’s views of the eighteenth-century city and in works by the Brocas family. Another innovation in retail trade appeared in College Green, in the premises vacated by the General Post Office when it moved to O’Connell Street. This was the Royal Arcade, an indoor shopping arcade, which opened in 1824 but never proved particularly successful and was destroyed by fire in 1837. The work of the Wide Streets Commissioners altered several of the city’s shopping streets, including High Street, Dame Street and Abbey Street, though they also created several new shopping thoroughfares such as Westmoreland Street, D’Olier Street, O’Connell Street Lower and Eden Quay. In many of these instances the commissioners either set out the criteria for rebuilding or engaged their own architects to design the buildings. Some of the commissioners’ shopfronts survive, typically with granite fascias and pilasters, such as those on the western side of D’Olier Street. An innovation introduced by the commissioners was the shop with a mezzanine gallery to increase the display space for goods. These were at the leading edge of retail fashion at the time, slightly before the provision of similar shops in the rue de Rivoli in Napoleon’s Paris.

Commerce itself is as old as the city. In the early modern period certain merchants began to specialise in banking, but it was in the mid eighteenth century that this activity broadened. The Hibernian Insurance Company was established in Dame Street in 1771 and set the trend for the location of similar services.51 By 1812 about a dozen insurance companies were operating in Dublin, many of them branches of London-based agents; most were in Dame Street, while a further two were nearby in Westmoreland Street and College Green.52 By 1846 there were about seventy such companies or agencies.53 The opening of new Royal Exchange in 1779 brought to Dublin one of its finest public buildings and signified the solid base on which commerce was founded. The provision of the exchange immediately preceded the relocation of the customhouse to the east, isolating it from the new financial heart of the city at College Green. The establishment of the Commercial Buildings (1796–9), which included a stock exchange, further strengthened the financial quarter

at the eastern end of Dame Street and in College Green, while the new Corn Exchange on Burgh Quay (1816–18) brought this function eastwards away from its medieval location at Cornmarket.

Banking also followed this relocation to College Green, though at a much slower pace. The banking system in Dublin emerged gradually through the eighteenth century, with acts of parliament being passed from time to time to regulate the activities of several small and unstable institutions. A banking crisis in the mid 1750s led to a number of crashes, followed by acts of parliament in 1756 and 1759.54 Many of the banks in Dublin at this time were located north of the river, two in Jervis Street and one each in Capel Street, Mary’s Abbey and Inns Quay. The hub was in Castle Street, however, where Latouche, Burton and Harrison, Gleadowe and Company and Thomas and Company had their premises. The crisis resulted in the closure of all but Latouche, Gleadowe and Finlay and few banks were founded over the next twenty-five years. The act of parliament that established the Bank of Ireland in Mary’s Abbey in 1783 gave it a monopoly on note issue, preventing the establishment of other banks in Dublin for many years. The bank’s move to the former Parliament House in the opening years of the nineteenth century encouraged the agglomeration of banks near College Green, though Lighton’s bank had already moved to Foster Place in 1799, becoming Shaw’s in 1807 and the Royal Bank of Ireland in 1836. The Bank of Ireland’s dominance was brought to an end by the Banking Act of 1845, allowing for provincial banks to open branches in the city and for the establishment of new joint stock banks, many of which chose to locate in the vicinity of College Green.

While Dublin was the seat of parliament in the eighteenth century and the administrative centre for Ireland in the nineteenth, the prosperity of the city depended on its trade, and trade was inextricably linked with transportation. Towards the end of the eighteenth century great improvements were made to the main roads out of the city and this received a further boost from 1805 when an act of parliament provided for the improvement of post roads in Ireland.55 The combined efforts of the Wide Streets Commissioners, the commissioners for Sackville Street and for Rutland Square, the Paving Board and the developers of private estates ensured that Dublin’s street network was improved to facilitate expansion. This became all the more important with the arrival of the canals and later the railways, as goods had to be moved to and from these new transport hubs. The improvement of the port and the ultimate removal of the sand bar required further integration of the transport system, particularly when the canals and railways increased traffic through the port; the completion of the north and south quays provided a much-needed route to service as it expanded.

The circulation of traffic around Dublin required more than wide streets and the network developed by the Liffey and its bridges, the city canals and the railways provided an urban framework that has endured to the present day (Map 3, Plate 11). From the 1750s all but one of Dublin’s Liffey bridges were rebuilt, commencing with Essex Bridge in 1753.56 The site of Ormond Bridge was altered after it was destroyed in a flood in 1802 so as to improve traffic movement.57 New bridges were erected at each end of the quays, with Carlisle (later O’Connell) Bridge built to facilitate developments to the east, while King’s (later Seán Heuston) Bridge followed in 1827 to replace a ferry to the west of the barracks. Further west, at Islandbridge, the old bridge collapsed in 1787 and was replaced in 1791 by Sarah (later Island) Bridge, built on a site better aligned with the new circular road (Map 4, Plate 10).58

The construction of canals connecting Dublin with the River Shannon had three major effects on the city — the transportation of goods, provision of water, and shaping of suburban growth. The initial location of the Grand Canal terminus at the harbour at James’s Street in 1785 boosted the traditional industrial and commercial zone in the Liberties, facilitating development around Robert Street and ultimately the western end of the Liberties. The utility of the canal in facilitating export of bulk goods such as corn and cattle was hampered by the location of the canal harbour on the western side of the city, away from the port. Locking down the canal into the Liffey had been the original intention, but canal boats would have had difficulty navigating the river. The decision to run the Grand Canal around the southern fringes to the port in 1790–92 resolved this issue, though the advent of paddle steamers less than thirty years later reduced the utility of the Grand Canal docks as these ships were too wide to negotiate the locks. Nonetheless, the Grand Canal’s circular route influenced the shaping of the southern side of the city, not just through the transportation of goods, but also by forming a barrier to movement that encouraged the consolidation of development on the inner side of the canal ring. The Royal Canal arrived in the city slightly later than the Grand Canal in 1796 and drew on its experience. The harbour at Broadstone provided a terminus for the transportation of provisions for Dublin, including cattle from Co. Meath and butter, potatoes and corn from Cos Westmeath and Meath, while turf was also carried from the bogs of the midlands (Plate 8).59 As with the Grand Canal, the Royal Canal’s circular line skirted the city to bring the canal to the Liffey and the port, thus facilitating the export trade and forming a barrier to development, though the north was slower to develop than the southern fringes (Map 4).

The railway system brought to Dublin a new form of bulk transport to replace the canals and opened up suburban development along its lines. Like the canals, the railways divided communities through the construction of embankments, though both schemes tended to avoid the built-up areas so as to minimise land costs and objections from occupiers (Map 1). The termini of these lines were located on the periphery. The pioneer was the Dublin and Kingstown Railway, which opened in 1834 and immediately became predominantly a passenger line, facilitating commuting from the suburbs and bringing little direct benefit to the commercial development of the city. The

addition of lines to Cork, Galway and Drogheda in the 1840s greatly increased movement of people and goods to and from Dublin. The Dublin and Drogheda Railway, later connected to Belfast, opened its terminus at Amiens Street. The Midland Great Western Railway line to Galway, based at the canal terminus at Broadstone, ran along the same route as the Royal Canal and augmented the existing traffic flows. In some ways the railways followed well-established transport networks. The Great Southern and Western Railway’s line to Cork, with its terminus on the western fringe (later Seán Heuston Station), lay close to the Grand Canal Harbour at James’s Street and its line duplicated the canal’s route from Sallins, while the Carlow branch of the railway ran through the hinterland of the canal to Athy and the Barrow Navigation. Canals remained important for the transport of bulk goods such as turf and grain, while the railways were better suited to the movement of livestock and, in the earlier years, small to medium consignments of goods. Canal traffic had the added advantage of greater access to Dublin port, enabling the transfer of goods for import and export, and their arrival at the Liffey docks was well timed to facilitate the boom in the provisions trade arising from the Napoleonic wars.

By 1812 Dublin had twenty-five guilds.60 The wealthier guilds had their own halls, while the others either met in a hall belonging to one of the larger guilds or in a rented room. As might be expected from their craft origins, the majority of guilds met in the Liberties. The carpenters’ hall was in Audoen’s Arch and seven other guilds appear to have met on their premises at various times — the bakers, bricklayers, butchers, chandlers, felt makers, shoemakers and smiths. The guild of tailors had its hall in Back Lane, which is the only older guild hall still standing, and hosted five other guilds, while the weavers’ hall in The Coombe was also the meeting place of the sheermen and dyers. Over time the proportion of guilds that met outside the Liberties grew, two meeting for a time in the exhibition house (later City Assembly House) in William Street, while two met in Morrison’s hotel in Dawson Street. When the apothecaries were incorporated by act of parliament in 1791 they acquired their own hall in Mary Street, while the guild of merchants had moved to a fine new hall on Wellington Quay by 1821.

Institutions involved with intellectual life began to appear in Dublin in the eighteenth century, the earliest, other than Dublin University, being the Dublin Society (later Royal Dublin Society), which had been founded in 1731. It moved through various premises in Shaw’s Court, Grafton Street and Hawkins Street before settling in 1815 in the mansion vacated by the duke of Leinster in Kildare Street. The Royal Irish Academy was founded in 1785 for the advancement of science, polite literature and antiquities and spent many years in Grafton Street before moving to Dawson Street in 1852.61 Marsh’s Library had been founded in c. 1703,62 and the Dublin Library Society in 1791 for the establishment of a library, which it did, in Burgh Quay, moving successively to Dame Street, Eustace Street and then D’Olier Street. The nineteenth century saw an increase in the number of such institutions devoted to the arts, sciences and professions. These included the Royal Hibernian Academy, founded in 1823 and provided by its president, the architect Francis Johnston, with its own premises in Abbey Street. The 1830s and 1840s saw the founding of the Institute of Irish Architects and the Irish Archaeological Society. Societies tended to locate in the south-eastern sector of the city, with the exception of the Farming Society of Ireland, which established its long-term headquarters in Summerhill. The south-east was the location of the parliament and the university. It became the centre of the financial district and the professions, except for law and the church, and hence it was convenient to many of those who belonged to these institutions.

The great outdoor entertainment for the well-to-do in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries was the promenades, where people went to see and to be seen. In some cases these were intended for this purpose, such as The Mall in Sackville Street or the various walks in St Stephen’s Green (Plate 2). The City Basin near James’s Street was surrounded by a wall to protect promenaders from unwanted company. In the mid eighteenth century the gardens of Rutland Square became popular for promenading, with an entry fee that went to support the Rotunda Hospital. Later in the century the North Circular Road became fashionable for this purpose, though in view of its distance from more central quarters this was mainly frequented by those on horseback or in carriages. Indoor entertainments took place in assembly rooms, such as those attached to the Rotunda Hospital, again as a fundraising enterprise. In the nineteenth century there were Green’s assembly rooms in Capel Street. The city was not short of theatres, with the music hall in Fishamble Street, Smock Alley Theatre (later Theatre Royal) in Essex Street West, the City Theatre or opera house in Capel Street and the Theatre Royal in Crow Street, all in existence by the mid eighteenth century. More specialised entertainment included a fantocchini, or puppet, theatre in Dame Street in the 1770s and another in Capel Street in the early nineteenth century. The Amphitheatre or Astley’s Amphitheatre, opened in Peter Street in 1788 as a theatre of horsemanship, was converted into a circus early in the next century, after which another amphitheatre was located on Bachelors Walk. The Theatre Royal in Hawkins Street was built in 1814 on the site previously occupied by the Dublin Society, while another Theatre Royal opened in Abbey Street in c. 1835. One of the more imaginative re-uses of a disused building came about when the former Patent Oil Gas Company’s premises in Pearse Street were converted for use as the Antient Concert Rooms in 1844. On a different scale, gentlemen’s clubs began to appear in the late

DUBLIN 1756 TO 1847 9

eighteenth century, mostly situated between College Green and St Stephen’s Green, with the exception of the Sackville Street Club.

The public expression of art comprised monuments in the streets. Dublin did not have many memorials in public places in the eighteenth century, though the few were prominent and substantial. The equestrian statute of King George I on Essex Bridge had been removed when rebuilding commenced in 1753,63 leaving only the statue of William III in College Green, which was also equestrian. A third equestrian monarch appeared in St Stephen’s Green when George II was erected in 1756. Aside from portrait statues, some fountains were built on a monumental scale, such as the Rutland Fountain in Merrion Street and the fountain in James’s Street erected by the Paving Board in 1790. The city’s greatest monument was Nelson’s Pillar, which was commenced in 1808 and paid for by the subscriptions of the grateful citizens whose booming export trade in provisions was safeguarded by Nelson’s victory at Trafalgar. The site for the largest monument of all was to be outside the city boundary in the Phoenix Park where work began on the Wellington Testimonial in 1817, though it was not to be completed until after Wellington’s death in 1852 (Plate 9).

The city of Dublin depicted on the Ordnance Survey’s large-scale (1:1056) town plans, published in 1847 (Maps 23, 24), was very different from that which had been shown by Rocque in 1756. It was larger, with broader, more regular streets lined with fine houses and with an impressive collection of public buildings (Map 20). It had two canals, four railways and four floating docks. What is not so evident on the 1847 map is the sudden change that had occurred within the previous year as the Great Famine gripped the country. Invisible on the map were the refugees, the overcrowding and the soup kitchens. Visible as a snapshot, but not evident without interpretation, is the slowing down, and in some cases temporary cessation, of development. Dublin by 1847 had run into another period of slump and prospects for the future were not auspicious.

Topographical InformationThis fascicle, Dublin, part III, contains topographical information from the period 1756

to 1847; the corresponding earlier material appears in Dublin, part I, to 1610 and Dublin, part II, 1610–1756. Entries that have a history before 1756 begin with an arrow symbol and the first referenced date, other than in sections 1–9, is included in square brackets. This fascicle will be followed in due course by Dublin, part IV, 1847 to 1900; accordingly, main entries and selected sub-entries that continue after 1847 and whose history is known at the time of publication terminate with an arrow symbol.

The information relates not to any single administrative division but to features of the built-up area of Dublin in the mid nineteenth century, generally contained within the canals. The extent is defined by what was depicted on the printed large-scale (1:1056) Ordnance Survey town plans of the period (surveyed in 1838, corrected to 1847), with only select sites of relevance to the city included beyond that area.

All grid references used are derived from the Irish National Grid. This grid appears at 100 m intervals on Map 3. In the Topographical Information grid references are included where possible for features not named on Maps 2, 3 or 4; they are given in eight figures (the last four figures respectively of the eastings and northings shown on Map 3) and indicate the approximate centre of the feature in question. ‘Site unknown’ is indicated where this precision has not been possible from the sources used for the period.

The entries under each heading, except for Streets, are arranged in chronological order by categories: for example, all mills are listed before all bakehouses, because the oldest mill pre-dates the oldest bakehouse. In general, dates of initiation and cessation are specified as such. Where these are unknown, the first and last recorded dates are given, and references of intermediate date are omitted except where corroborative evidence appears necessary. Features and categories that existed before 1756 are listed first and they are generally ordered as in Dublin, part I, to 1610 and part II, 1610 to 1756. Some sites and categories have been reclassified for the period 1756 to 1847. Significant new information and revisions to entries since the publication of parts I and II are recorded in the Corrigenda (loose sheet) and cross-referenced from the text (by a dagger symbol in superscript †).

Street names are listed in alphabetical order. The first entry for each street, in the left-hand column, gives its present-day name according to the most authoritative source. This is followed in the right-hand column by its first identifiable appearance for the period, named or unnamed, in a map or other record and the various names subsequently applied to it in chronological order of occurrence. Only the principal variants are cross-referenced, usually in their earliest recorded form. As in other sections, grid references are included where possible for streets not named on Maps 2, 3 or 4. As an aid to locating streets that are named, the nearest main thoroughfare is included in brackets at the beginning of the right-hand column.

The section on residence is not intended to embrace more than a small fraction of the city’s dwelling houses. The main criteria for inclusion are (1) apparent size and quality of construction; (2) identification by a contemporary name; (3) association with important people, lay and ecclesiastical.

Abbreviated source-references are explained in the bibliography on pages 103–5 and general abbreviations on pages 106.

NOTE ON MAPS 1–4

Map 2, Dublin in 1847, is a revised version of the map that appeared in Dublin, part II, 1610 to 1756. It is at the scale of 1:2500 and is derived from the Ordnance Survey published 1:1056 plan of Dublin (surveyed in 1838, corrected to 1847). Map 4, Dublin in 1843–7 represents a larger area at the smaller scale of 1:5000. It is also derived from the Ordnance Survey published 1:1056 plan of Dublin of the same date, but includes the full extent of this survey (33 sheets), which indicates the limits of the city for the purposes of this fascicle. The area outside these limits has been mapped from the published 1:10,560 Ordnance Survey maps of Co. Dublin, first edition, sheet 18 (surveyed in 1837, corrected to 1843) and therefore has a more generalised appearance.

On both Maps 2 and 4, where information on plot boundaries was not available the internal layout is not represented. Public buildings depicted include institutional premises to which the public had recourse but were in private or church ownership. Features are named as they are on the original maps, but in the case of Map 4 labelling is selective and dependent on available space. Maps 1 and 3 have also been revised and updated since Dublin, part II, 1610 to 1756.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

A project of this size and complexity would be difficult or impossible to bring to fruition without the assistance of many people and institutions. Fortunately, being a capital city and of significant size, the period under consideration is well documented through written and cartographic sources, both published and unpublished. The excellent collections held by Dublin City Library and Archive were crucial to the work and this was facilitated by Mary Clark, Máire Kennedy and Ellen Murphy. The National Library of Ireland provided a great deal of information, particularly from its map collections, including those of the Ordnance Survey and the Longfield collection and thanks are due to James Harte, Honora Faul and Mary Broderick in this regard. Similarly, the National Archives of Ireland made available its map collection, in addition to other material, with the assistance of Frances McGee and Hazel Menton. Digital versions of the Ordnance Survey town plans were generously supplied by Jane Nolan of the library in University College, Dublin. Further maps were provided from the Glucksman Map Library in Trinity College, Dublin and Paul Ferguson was open with his help, as always. Susan Hood and Raymond Refaussé of the Representative Church Body Library provided valuable advice on sources. Other libraries that facilitated work were the Irish Architectural Archive and the Friends Historical Library. Finally, the staff in the library of the Royal Irish Academy were always available to assist and thanks go to Siobhán Fitzpatrick, Bernadette Cunningham, Sophie Evans, Amy Hughes and Dave McKeon.

Many individuals helped in a variety of ways, some of them not even being aware that the information they provided would become part of the data held in this fascicle. From the outset Edel Sheridan-Quantz was supportive of the project, though from her base in Germany. Andrew Bonar Law made available maps and engravings from his collection as well as a great deal of information from his wealth of knowledge on the subject. John Montague guided the way through the complexities of Rocque’s maps and Merlo Kelly helped to illuminate the obscurities of the Gardiner Estate. Colm Lennon was supportive throughout, with his knowledge and his experience with the production of Dublin, part II. My daughter, Ailbhe Goodbody, tackled some eighteenth-century handwriting and nineteenth-century trades, several obscure. Other knowledge and advice were made freely available by Edward McParland, Eoin Bairéad, Mary Davies, Peter Harbison, Stuart Kinsella, Diarmuid Ó Gráda and Letitia Pollard. Staff in the Royal Irish Academy publications office, Ruth Hegarty, Helena King, Roisin Jones and Fidelma Slattery, supported production in many ways.

A great deal of the work for this project was carried out by researchers who were part of the Irish Historic Towns Atlas team at various stages. David Dickson facilitated early work on the Ordnance Survey town plans by Stefanie Jones. Later, Angela Byrne, Rhiannon Carey Bates, Frank Cullen and Liam Lannigan all made considerable contributions to the finished atlas through research, editorial work and cartography, while Ellen Murphy and Tara Farrell helped with final checks on the text.

Much of this additional research was funded by the financial assistance provided by Dublin City Council. Thanks to John Fitzgerald and to John Tierney, former City Managers, their successor Owen Keegan, and to Donncha Ó Dúlaing, former Heritage Officer and his successor Charles Duggan for their support throughout the project. Thanks also to the Heritage Council, and the Marc Fitch Fund, Oxford, for grants towards research and production.

I should like to acknowledge the major contribution of John Andrews to my interest in research in general and map interpretation in particular. His teaching and guidance through to a degree forty years ago has guided me ever since. Finally, I should mention the influence of my late grandmother, Olive C. Goodbody, not just for instilling the interest, but through access to her map and book collection that was made available to me by my aunt Eleanor Nicholson and my later father, John Goodbody, and which has been of inestimable help in simplifying the task of producing this volume. Ingrid Goodbody has provided background support throughout.
