THE GATE BAR Heritage

🏭 Heritage-listed building

Built: c.1830 · NIAH rating: Regional

Commercial directories record a ‘grocer and spirit dealer’ here in the 1840s owned by J. Farley and a ‘grocer, tea, wine and sprit merchant’ owned by P. Ramsbottom in the 1890s, indicating a continuity of use for over one hundred and seventy years, and constituting a significant reminder of the social and commercial history of the area. This building retains some of its traditional form and fabric, with the fenestration, particularly the Wyatt windows, making an interesting contribution to the streetscape. Temple Bar and Temple Lane South are named after Sir William Temple and his son Sir John Temple who acquired the land between the River Liffey and Dame Street in the seventeenth century. The area was fully reclaimed and developed by the early eighteenth century and became a mixed residential and commercial quarter.
