    This is a view of the venerable hotel from St. Stephen's Green. The comparison with the park of today is striking. Nowadays only the top of the hotel is visible over mature trees.

    The hotel is in a photo from the National Library of Ireland that looks down the street by the park. The flag on the hotel is centre right.
    Stephen's Green, Dublin
    The comments there reach the conclusion that the NLI photo above was taken between 1873 and 1878.

    Another NLI photo which shows the hotel at right and has lots of well-informed discussion as comments.

    In 1922 the Constitution of the Irish Free State was drafted in this hotel, in room 112. "The Constitution of the Irish Free State was the 2nd constitution of the independent Irish state. It was adopted by Act of Dáil Éireann sitting as a constituent assembly on the 25th October, 1922 and was proclaimed by Royal Proclamation on 6 December 1922 in accordance with Article 83 of the Constitution and came into operation on the issue of that Proclamation."

    The Irish Free State Constitution Committee, Shelbourne Hotel 1922 From Left to Right:- R.J.P. Mortished (Secretary); John O'Byrne, B.L.; C.J. France; Darrell Figgis (Acting Chairman); Ned Stephens, B.L. (Secretary); P.A. O'Toole, B.L. (Secretary); James Mac Neill (sic); Hugh Kennedy, K.C.; James Murnahan (sic), B.L.; James Douglas. Seems James Douglas, on left, was cropped out. He’s there in other copies. No sign of Collins either
