Unknown Townland is not a separate region but the hidden identity of a medieval Dublin font, where forgotten facts still touch lives through the platform.
Granite medieval baptismal font (H 0.96m x Wth 0.72 x  D 0.72m) located inside St Patrick’s Cathedral (DU018-020269-) that was described in the Urban Survey of Dublin City (Bradley and King 1988, Vol. 1, 78) as follows; ‘Central drainage hole, it rests on a central column and four corner columns, two of which are modern. One side is roughened and this may be the side that was attached to a pier in the north aisle of the nave’ (Bernard 1905, 45). Located inside the baptistery at the W end of the Cathedral Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien
