10 Archaeology, Cultural Heritage and Architectural Heritage
Dublin City Council College Green Project EIS Chapter 10- Archaeology, Architectural and Cultural Heritage 10 Archaeology, Cultural Heritage and Architectural Heritage 10.1 Introduction Irish Archaeological Consultancy Ltd has prepared this report on behalf of Dublin City Council to assess the impact, if any, on the archaeological, architectural and cultural heritage resource of the Proposed Project at College Green, Dublin City Centre (OS Sheet 18). The Proposed Project occupies a city-centre location, c. 235m south of the River Liffey, adjacent to landmark buildings including Bank of Ireland and Trinity College. The study area falls within 1.4 hectares (including the block formed by St Andrew’s, Trinity, and Church Street). It is located at College Green which encompasses parts of Dame Street, Trinity Street, St Andrew’s Street and Church Lane, at the very northern end of Grafton Street. The Project is adjacent to the southern end of Anglesea Street and occupies the full area of Foster Place and College Green which includes the southernmost part of Westmoreland Street, the area south of Bank of Ireland (former House of Parliament) and immediate west of Trinity College. As part of the Proposed Project, it has been indicated that a large area of eastern College Green (170m x 40m) may be excavated to a depth of 2.5m to accommodate the main plaza. The Proposed Project is located within the zone of archaeological potential for the historic centre of Dublin City (DU018-020). It is located c. 270m outside of the medieval town walls of Dublin. The Proposed Project is also surrounded by numerous protected structures and partially located within Architectural Conservation Areas (ACAs) associated with O’Connell Street, The South City Retail Quarter and Grafton Street and Environs. -
The Iconography of O'connell Street and Environs After Independence
Symbolising the State— the iconography of O’Connell Street and environs after Independence (1922) Yvonne Whelan Academy for Irish Cultural Heritages, University of Ulster, Magee Campus Derry ABSTRACT This paper explores the iconography of Dublin’s central thoroughfare, O’Connell Street and its immediate environs in the decades following the establishment of the Irish Free State in 1922. It follows an earlier paper which examined the iconography of Sackville Street before Independence and turns the focus towards an analysis of the ways in which the street became a significant site for the cul- tural inscription of post-colonial national identity. It is argued that the erection of new monuments dedicated to the commemoration of the 1916 Rising, as well as the destruction of older imperial symbols, rendered visible the emergence of the newly independent Irish Free State. The paper charts this process of iconograph- ical inscription but also argues that O’Connell Street as a totality has taken on greater symbolic significance than any of the monuments that line its centre. In conclusion the paper examines the contemporary iconography of the street and addresses the apparent transition from political sculpture to public art which has taken place in recent decades throughout the city. Key index words: O’Connell Street, iconography, national identity, monuments. Introduction The great thoroughfare which the citizen of Dublin was accustomed to describe proudly “as the finest street in Europe” has been reduced to a smoking reproduction of the ruin wrought at Ypres by the mercilessness of the Hun. Elsewhere throughout the city streets have been devastated, centres of thriving industry have been placed in peril or ruined, a paralysis of work and commerce has been imposed, and the pub- lic confidence that is the life of trade and employment has received a staggering blow from which it will take almost a generation to recover” (The Freeman’s Journal, 26th April - 5th May 1916). -
The Women Were Worse Than the Men: Crime and Society in Dublin During 1916
The Women were Worse than the Men: Crime and Society in Dublin during 1916 The mobs that looted Dublin’s city centre in 1916 have entered the mythology of the Rising just as robustly as the Irish Volunteers and Irish Citizen Army and, as far as I am aware, it was the only occasion in the history of the capital, and possibly Ireland, when more women were convicted of criminal offences than men, hence the title of this talk. However I also want to say something about the wider impact the First World War had on crime in the city The Easter Rising made Dublin unique in the United Kingdom in that it was the only city where fighting took place and the general breakdown in law and order created new opportunities for breaking the law, just as the Defence of the Realm Act that was passed on the outbreak of the Great War created new laws to break. The incidence of serious crime by juvenile gangs, often abetted by adults, such as housebreaking and robbery of coal trains, became commonplace, along with fraudulent claims for separation allowances, theft of military property and greatly increased desertion rates from the British armed forces. At the same time the large scale recruitment of young adult males from working class districts into the armed forces saw a reduction in the pool of potential adult offenders and a decline in the population of Mountjoy Prison. But to return to the looters: newspapers characterised them in vivid terms that are remembered to this day. The Irish Times, which managed to publish almost uninterruptedly throughout the fighting, reported on Tuesday, 25 April, 1916, that on the previous night ‘Shop windows in North Earl Street were smashed, and the shops were looted. -

During the course of the century it underwent a major rebuilding, with the Wide Streets Commission demolishing many of the narrow medieval streets and replacing them with large Georgian streets. Among the famous streets to appear following this redesign were Sackville Street (now called O'Connell Street), Dame Street, Westmoreland Street, and D'Olier Street. Five major Georgian squares were also laid out: Rutland Square (now called Parnell Square) and Mountjoy Square to the north, and Merrion Square, Fitzwilliam Square, and Saint Stephen's Green south of the River Liffey. -

Dublin City Draft Development Plan 2016-22 Dublintown Submission
Dublin City Draft Development Plan 2016-22 DublinTown Submission DublinTown is the Business Improvement District for Dublin City Centre. The organisation was provided with a mandate to represent the city centre’s 2,500 businesses following a plebiscite of businesses in 2007. This mandate was renewed in 2012 following a second BID ballot. DublinTown welcomes the opportunity to make this submission as part of the Dublin City Development plan issues paper consultation. Introduction DublinTown believes that the City Development Plan 2011-2017 is a strong well thought out plan and if fully implemented has the potential to significantly improve the quality of life for Dublin’s citizens. DublinTown previously made a detailed submission in relation to the plan and remains supportive of the vision contained within it. While we understand that circumstances can change over the life time of a plan we believe that there is merit in considering unfulfilled aspects of the 2011-2017 plan to identify those elements that could and should be still implemented. We believe that the plan once agreed should be adhered to so as to provide greater certainty and direction for the city. DublinTown would advocate that new and innovative ideas be trialled for a period of time. If they work, we all benefit and if they don’t, we can improve and modify those plans or abandon them. However, we shouldn’t be afraid to try new ideas and should accept that some concepts may not work or are perhaps be ahead of their time. However, there should be no recriminations when we consider new ideas and assess how they will work in practice. -
