THE INTERNATIONAL BAR Heritage

🏭 Heritage-listed building

Built: c.1910 · NIAH rating: Regional

There has been a public house on this site since the 1850’s, however this well-preserved and prominently sited building dates to 1911 to the design of George O’Connor. It retains a wealth of original fabric, including original pubfronts to both elevations and a high quality interior. It is finely built, having lively brick detailing combined with features characteristic of the Edwardian period. The stacked oriel windows, ranging over three floors, are a particularly striking feature , and the stepped curvilinear gable may be interpreted as a reference to the Dutch influences of seventeenth-century Dublin. It is one of the more striking buildings on the street, making a significant contribution to the architectural diversity and character of the streetscape. Mentioned, as Ruggy O’Donohoe’s, in Joyce’s Ulysses. It has long been associated with the literary, musical and theatrical life of the city.
