    ... But few people know how it got its famous name. Apparently during the Siege of Limerick a cannon ball was fired by the Williamite army and ‘removed the head of a well-known red-haired girl of ill-repute.’ This happened while she was watching the battle against Sarsfield and his men from the window of the brothel. When a new tavern was built on the site of the house in 1794 it was called ‘The Sign of the Brazen Head’.

And a river runs through it (Dodder, Dublin)
