Irishtown Barracks RIC

[chinapaddy]

In 1901/1911 Census there is an entry for Irishtown Road, Dublin, Pembroke East for Royal Irish Constabulary/Metropolitan Police
Would anyone know if this was located on the site of the current Irishtown Road Police Station?

Thank you Daithi! I am wrong. The new Garda station is on the opposite side of the road to the Old Barracks on the corner of Londonbridge Road. So it seems likely the Old Barracks in the link you posted was the original Barracks in the 1901 and 1911 census.

the Bottle Makers Hall is a completely different building about a 1/2 mile away down the Irishtown Road and was only built in 1915.   http://www.newsfour.ie/2016/10/bottlemakers-hall-mystery/

The reason i linked to the bottlemakers hall is it mention's listed building's including a former Garda Station

A few door's away from Church of Ireland    St Matthews ?

As the Barracks is a 'Listed Building' it is most likely the same barracks from the 1911 Census. Thank you .

On this link http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai000115079/ it shows no.66 as a Public House.
That would be The Vintage Inn next to The Barracks in the photo at the bottom of this article.
