Streetview Established in the 1790s, Kennan & Sons survived until the late 1980s - they exhibited a range of machine tools at the 1962 London exhibition - and were based at their "Engineering Iron Works" in Fishamble Street, Dublin, Ireland, one of the oldest parts of the city. Next to the works was the personal residence of Mr. Kennan, a house modified in the 1820s but surviving today, beautifully restored, as the Contemporary Music Centre and retaining its typical-of-the-period columned door case, embellished lead fanlight, graceful windows and elegant staircase. From here.

This particular corner of Fishamble Street seems to be fairly well covered on Flickr. Including some images (maybe a decade or so either side of this Wiltshire shot) of probable Kennan employees themselves - and the demonstrations around the Wood Quay debacle across the street.... www.flickr.com/photos/94338156@N03/9736730422/ www.flickr.com/photos/29381920@N03/12728071044/ www.flickr.com/photos/edsijmons/14073161070/

I am not sure Built Heritage is the correct album for this photo!

Streetview History of the pub. This photo is during the dismantling of the pub. "A site acquisition order was announced, with Dublin Corporation making room for their new Civic Offices at Wood Quay. Lord Moyne, then vice-chairman of the Guinness Brewery, financed a project to salvage the exterior of the Irish House. In July 1968 scaffolding went up and all embellishments were removed and transported to a warehouse at the Guinness Hopstore."
