Summary
[edit].jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | My understanding is that George’s Quay is named after King George III and across the river is Charlotte’s Quay which is named after his wife. According to a tourist guide that I overheard the Abbey river that flows along the quay separated the two. After hearing what the guide had said I decided to check Wikipedia and came across the following “On 8 September 1761 in the Chapel Royal, St James's Palace, the King married Princess Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, whom he met on their wedding day. A fortnight later, both were crowned at Westminster Abbey. George remarkably never took a mistress (in contrast with his grandfather and his sons), and the couple enjoyed a genuinely happy marriage.” As they say in Ireland, never let the facts het in the way of a good story. |
