Dublin - Ely Place

Farther south along Upper Merrion Street from the National History Museum, beyond Merrion Row, we come to Ely Place, a cul-de-sac of elegant Georgian houses of about 1770. The finest is Ely House (No. 8), with a handsome staircase and good stucco ceilings; it is now the headquarters of the Knights of Columbanus.
