Probably still intact as there is a Lawrence Photographic Project in 1990/91 - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000354584

beachcomber australia Is this inside the castle gate rather than in Ship Street itself?

“Edward Cecil Guinness, 1st Earl of Iveagh, KP, GCVO, FRS (10 November 1847 – 7 October 1927) was an Anglo-Irish businessman and philanthropist. A member of the prominent Guinness family, he was the head of the family's eponymous brewing business, making him the richest man in Ireland”

Codpiece vital for Fancy Balls.

Suck Diesel Had to look up KP, and GCVO. For those of us equally challenged, they were Knight of the Order of St. Patrick, and a Knight of the Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order.

An article in the Manchester Courier - Wednesday 15 March 1876 began:
FANCY DRESS BALL AT DUBLIN CASTLE.
The fancy dress ball which took place on Saturday night Dublin Castle, was the first held at the Viceregal Court of Dublin. A children's fancy ball was given by Lord Mulgrave, but it bore no semblance to this splendid pageant. Every one who attended was in fancy dress, with the exception of the Lord Mayor, the judges, and the officers of the garrison. No Court, naval or civil uniform of this century, was allowed.

No mention specifically of these two, but other Jamesons and Guinnesses are namechecked.

Fascinating history - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dublin_Castle , including this 'now' photo - upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2d/Dublin-Castle... "... At the heart of the gardens is the grassy sward of the Dubh Linn Garden, where patterns representing sea serpents are cut into the lawn. This lawn is on or near the site of the original dubh linn or ‘black pool’, where the Vikings harboured their ships and set up a trading base. It was this pool that gave its name to the city: Dublin. ..." From - www.dublincastle.ie/the-castle-gardens/

Wikipedia has a drawing of the castle in maybe 1600 showing where the lawn is at right.
