    Apologies for the delay in posting this morning, I had a long visit from the Bad Panda's and they could not take the hint and go home again!

    Situated beside St. Patrick's Cathedral, tradition has it that St. Patrick baptised the first Irish Christians there with water from the River Poddle which flows underground. Developed by Lord Iveagh under the St. Patrick's Park Act of 1897, work was completed by July 1904 to a layout by Arthur Dudgeon C.E., dated 17th July 1901. Lord Iveagh continued to maintain the park for a number of years under a joint arrangement with the Corporation who eventually took full responsibility in the 1920's.

    From looking at older maps it seems that the building of the park required the clearance of a significant block of buildings.

    But the bigger mystery of how they ever got the figs into the Fig Rolls is solved here...
  • John Spooner said:
    Freeman's Journal of May 26 1883 reported a fire at Messrs Jacob's Biscuit Factory in Peter Street. The damage done was enormous", but could have been worse but for the actions of the night watchman, Patrick Mooney, and the Fire Brigade under the command of Captain Boyle and Lieutenant Boyle.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    There's a ground floor floorplan of the factory available and I think I can make out a "cutter room" towards the centre. (However, the floorplans date from 1956, so I presume there may have been a few changes made.)
