Dublin / Dublin Workhouse 1890 & Ward's Cottages 1892 and 1895

Can anyone help me with my gt grandmother who was born in a Dublin Workhouse
Bridget Reilly was born 29 Aug 1890 (birth register states 'in workhouse') to Mary Brady and George Reilly of 58 Church St. She was baptised 30 Aug 1890 in St Paul's.
What I would like to know is:
*Which 'workhouse' exactly would this have been?
*If her father's address is given (58 Church St) does that mean then that it was Bridget and her mother only in the workhouse?
*Is there a possibility that Bridget's parents were not married at the time of her birth? They went on to have two more children (not born in the workhouse)
The other two children, Mary Ann (born 29 Dec 1892 - 17 Wards Cottages) and Christina (born 26 Dec 1895 - 16 Wards Cottages) Can someone tell me where exactly and what were Wards Cottages
Any help at all will be greatly appreciated
