View of Stephens Green antique park & gardens, with a Victorian shelter in the background.
The 27 acre park had originally been public land until 1663 when the City Council closed public access and sold some of the property.   Sir Arthur Guinness, Member of Parliament & founder of the Guinness Brewery, proposed the bill which restored public access to Stephens Green in 1877.
The ornamental gardens and fountains were laid out during the 1880's & were funded by Sir Arthur Guinness (Lord Ardilaun).
