Quay

What is recorded here

According to De Courcy (1996, 283-286) development of the quay began c. 1675 and was substantially formed by 1685. This involved land fill and straightening of the river bank. It was called Ormonde Quay in honour of the Duke of Ormonde in recognition of his support for the development project.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
