Publisher Description: Mention Ringsend to any Dubliner and they will immediately talk about the iconic twin chimneys, the 'Pigeon Towers'. They might even mention the Corporation's sewage treatment plant, or the Shelbourne Park Greyhound Stadium. But they will need to be reminded about the South Bull Wall, the former Pigeon House Fort, and the Poolbeg Lighthouse. Or the Isolation Hospital on Pigeon House Road, and the Cats & Dogs Home on Grand Canal Quay. It is this and more that you will find out in this latest title from Joe Curtis, an author fast becoming as iconic in local history circles as the Pigeon Towers themselves. |
