Remarks The Tailors' Hall, built between 1703 and 1707, is used as the head office of the environmental protection organisation An Taisce. This is the only survivng guild-hall in Dublin. The elaborate entrance opens on to a small garden containing plants which have been imported or popularised by the Irish. The Great Hall has a stage and an attractive marble fireplace; an elegant pine staircase leads to the minute gallery, decorated with a wrought-iron railing.
