Dublin street corners


Several notable junctions in Dublin city in Ireland still carry the name of the pub or business which once occupied the corner.
While this practice is not unique to Dublin, the pace of recent development there has meant that the original source of the name is more likely to have disappeared.
Examples include:Baker's Corner at the junction of Rochestown Avenue and Kill Lane in Deansgrange;Doyle's Corner at the junction of the North Circular Road and Phibsborough Road in Phibsborough;
Other street corners have been named after notable people, for example Rory Gallagher Corner in Temple Bar.
