The National Monuments Service's description

Burke (1907, 56) describes a block of houses (TS083-019114-), known as 'Middle Row' which occupied the centre of the upper O'Connell St., between the West Gate and the junction of Mary St. and Bridge St. He describes how, 'Opposite Bridge Street and forming the end of Middle Row stood "the county goale and Town hall built over the same" (ibid. 58). The row was still standing in 1677 when, 'the houses in the middle of the street', are mentioned in relation to a corporation dispute (ibid. 494 footnote). The row, including the jail and town hall, was possibly demolished in the late 17th or 18th century.
