Store or warehouse in Hazelhatch, County Dublin

What is recorded here

The Store or warehouse in Hazelhatch has lost its roof but still has blocked-up openings. A very Irish approach to security: you may enter from heaven, but you’ll not be coming through that window.

Detached three-storey former canal company warehouse, c.1760, with attached two-storey outbuilding, both now derelict. Rubble stone walls, originally rendered. Timber lintels to openings, some now blocked. Roofs originally pitched slate, now gone. Canal front overgrown, though possibly built up to embankment and incorporating level change.

These canal-side warehouses are valuable evidence of the former activities of a working canal, and enhance the significance of this group of structures around Hazelhatch Bridge.
