What is recorded here

This dwelling was formerly located on the S side of Skinner's Row-close to the Tholsel. It was the Dublin House of the Earl's of Kildare and the residence of Gerald, 9th Earl of Kildare, when he was Lord Deputy (1513-1519, 1524-6; 1532-4). It was later granted to Piers Butler, 9th Earl of Ormond and obtained the name 'Ormond Hall' (Gilbert 1854-9, i, 171-2). It survived until the mid-18th century and was an early cage-work house (Bradley & King 1987, I, 26, FMD map (1978) M6, Walsh 1973,58,73; Breffeny & Ffolliott 1975, 26).
