What is recorded here

Rectangular stone wet dock, built 1821, to designs of John Rennie with lock opening into Inner Dock to north and further lock connecting to Liffey to south. Built of squared coursed limestone ashlar walls, slightly battered with large squared granite coping. Curved walls to entrances of both locks with several granite bollards and cast-iron mooring ties located to perimeter. Now used for public events with modern steel deck structure to centre, two geysers and stainless steel railing encircling entire dock.

This official record and map point do not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
