Burke (1907, 56) describes a block of houses, known as 'Middle Row' which occupied the centre of the upper O'Connell St., between the West Gate and the junction of Mary St. and Bridge St. On either side of this block of houses there was a narrow street or lane running from West Gate to the junction of Mary St. and Bridge St. That to the N of the row was called North Lane and that to the S of the row was called West Street or West Gate Street. The row was still standing in 1677 when, 'the houses in the middle of the street', are mentioned in relation to a corporation dispute (ibid. 494 footnote). The row was possibly demolished in the late 17th or 18th century.
