NIAH building record

Built: c.1870 · NIAH rating: Regional

This building forms part of an interesting group with the adjoining terrace on the west side of South Main Street and with the terrace on the east side of the street. The scale and form of these buildings make a notable and positive contribution to the streetscape. Built on the site of the medieval city, many of these buildings contain archaeological fabric. The limestone plaques on the north elevation are significant features of the building. The early seventeenth-century plaque, dated 1604 adds archaeological interest to the building.

The Raven: Boards.ie memory worth building out

Boards.ie gives The Raven a useful forum-memory trail around old memories, characters and regulars, stories and gossip, room atmosphere and rituals and house habits. PubHub is treating it as linked public memory, not settled fact.

The archive has 11 readable signals for The Raven, with enough repetition to make this a good candidate for a fuller memory page. The useful material is the pattern: what people returned to, joked about, remembered, or argued over.

The character lane is active here: 3 signals point toward regulars, staff-memory, crowds, roles, and room texture. PubHub should keep private people protected while preserving the sense of the room.

The source trail currently preserves 11 unique Boards.ie URLs for review. The dated archive span visible on the page is 1998-2010.

Generated V1 flagship draft. Before turning this into stronger editorial copy, open the linked sources, check pub identity, and keep corrections/removals easy.

Boards.ie editor brief

Readable memory note

Boards.ie gives The Raven a source-linked forum-memory trail around old memories, regulars and room characters, stories and gossip, atmosphere and rituals and habits, with 11 readable signals preserved for review. The character lane adds 3 room-texture signals, pointing to regulars, crowds, roles or recurring pub talk without treating forum memory as verified fact.

This is an editor brief from source-linked forum memory. It is not a verified pub fact, and sensitive private-person claims stay out of public copy.

story gossip

What people were talking about

Boards.ie gives The Raven 11 readable forum-memory signals around older recollections, changed routines, remembered visits, and traces of how the pub lived in people's routes, regulars, staff-memory, room characters, crowds, and the social texture around the pub, story-shaped forum talk, rumours, local claims, and fragments that could become fuller pub stories, recommendations, atmosphere, room feel, and how people described the place and repeated habits, match days, late-bar routines, quizzes, lock-ins, or other house rhythms. This is not verified pub history; it is a mapped trail of what people said online and where PubHub can go next for local colour.
