    The piece of land near the bottom refers to (corrected thanks Sharon Corbet) Sir William Davies, Lord Chief Justice of Ireland: (Be. 1633-1687): and at top probably refers to Sir Henry Titchborne: (1st Baron Ferrard) (1633-1731): and St Andrew's Church (Andrew St) built c1665, (on or near the site of ancient parish church), rebuilt 1793 and again 1860: Streetview: www.google.com.au/maps/@53.3436355,-6.2615161,3a,75y,136....

    The survey dates from the late 17th or early 18th Century, when John Greene was City Surveyor for Dublin. There was another similar Survey being auctioned a few years ago.

    The hill is the viking Thingmount. The Sir William Davis mentioned in the chart, had the Thingmount levelled and the soil carted away that was deposited to form the elevated ground now occupied by Nassau Street. He felt his plot was too valuable and the "hill" was in his way of realising the full profit of his plot. www.geocities.ws/heatheneurope/thingmount "In 1682 the mount itself was demised to Sir William Davis, Recorder of the city and then Chief Justice of the King's Bench. He had a residence adjoining the mount and a fee-farm grant was made to him with the avowed object of clearing the ground. His petition for this grant states that "the ground on which the mount stands, being very small and the mount itself being very high, the cost of levelling it and carrying it away would be a vast charge". A mass of earth and stone, 40 feet high and 240 feet in circumference could not be removed without great expense, but the site was, ultimately, too valuable to lie unhindered and was used in the raising of Nassau Street, then called Saint Patrick's Well Lane, to prevent further flooding and the street elevated 8 to 10 feet above it. This can still be seen today as Nassau Street is on quite a height above the adjoining grounds of Trinity College."

    Andy Brill I thought rather William Davys (Before 1633-1687) and Sir Henry Tichborne (1633-1731).

    The site of the St Andrew's Church as indicated on the survey is marked on the 25" OSI.
