DescriptionHenrietta Street - Dublin 4891467298.jpg |
Number 13 Henrietta Street Nos. 13, 14 & 15 (south-side), built simultaneously by Luke Gardiner in the early 1740s, and first leased to Nicholas Loftus (from 1766 the Earl of Ely), Richard 3rd Viscount Molesworth (Commander-in-Chief of the Forces in Ireland from 1751), and Sir Robert King (Baron Kingsborough from 1748) respectively.
Henrietta Street is the earliest Georgian Street in Dublin – it is the model from which Dublin’s Georgian identity is derived. Construction on the street started in the mid 1720s, on land bought by the Gardiner family in 1721. Construction was still taking place in the 1750s. Gardiner had a mansion, designed by Richard Cassels, built for his own use around 1730. The street was popularly referred to as Primate's Hill, as one of the houses was owned by the Archbishop of Armagh, although this house, along with two others, was demolished to make way for the Law Library of King's Inns. The street fell into disrepair during the 19th and 20th centuries, with the houses being used as tenements, but has been the subject of restoration efforts in recent years. There are currently 13 houses on the street. The street is a cul-de-sac, with the Law Library of King's Inns facing onto its western end. As you can see from my photographs many of the houses are currently in very poor condition. Also the area suffers from much anti-social behavior. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henrietta_Street" rel="nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henrietta_Street</a> |
