This section includes deeds relating to plots of ground on the Grand Canal and on Richmond Place, Dublin. These unrelated deeds may have been returned to the Capuchins in error by a solicitor’s firm.
An image of an outdoor (clothing and shoe) street market, most likely in the vicinity of the old Moore Street market area in Dublin. The image may possibly show stalls on either Horseman’s Row or Coles Lane in this area (the present-day Ilac Centre now covers this site).
