HENRIETTA STREET AND IT'S DOORS

The street is a cul-de-sac, with the Law Library of King's Inns facing onto its western end. As of 2017, there are 13 houses on the street. One of these houses, 14 Henrietta Street, was opened as a museum in late 2018.

HENRIETTA STREET AND IT’S DOORS – AT THE BEGINNING OF 2021 New Year’s Day was my birthday so I did not bother to take any photographs but on the next day I decided to begin my 2021 programme by photographing the doors of Henrietta Street [I live here] using an Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max because this is the camera that I intend for much of 2021. I have already booked week long visits to Belfast,…

THE ARBOUR HILL - STONEBATTER AREA OF DUBLIN [SITRIC PLACE]-158513 by William Murphy Via Flickr: Back in the late 1960s many of my friends decided to purchase homes in or near Arbour Hill in Dublin but as I worked for a US Multi-National I was out of the country for about two hundred days every year i was not really practical for me to buy property in Ireland. In 1979 I tried to purchase a house in Arbour Hill and i actually gave the agent a deposit of £10,000 but two days after it was discovered that he had collected about twenty deposits for the same property. Fortunately for me he failed to cash my cheque before he disappeared however as as result I decided to forget about buying a house in Dublin and I did not return to the market until 1995. Arbour Hill is an inner city area of Dublin, on the Northside of the River Liffey, in the Dublin 7 postal district. Arbour Hill, the road of the same name, runs west from Blackhall Place in Stoneybatter, and separates Collins Barracks, now part of the National Museum of Ireland, to the south from Arbour Hill Prison to the north, whose graveyard includes the burial plot of the signatories of the Easter Proclamation that began the 1916 Rising. Apart from the striking artisan dwellings, the area is also known for the prominent Viking street names. For example, there is Viking Road, Olaf Road, Thor Place, Sitric Road, Norseman Place, Ard Ri Road, Malachi Road, Ostman Place, Ivar Street, Sigurd Road and Harold Road. At the time of the Norman invasion, the Vikings, Ostmen or Austmenn (men of the East) as they called themselves, were exiled to the north of the Liffey where they founded the hamlet of Ostmenstown later to become Oxmantown.
