The History Press Ltd Fountains of Dublin
The fountains of Dublin are many and varied, from elaborate Victorian masterpieces and modern sculptures to more modest, practical installations. Unfortunately, many of the older fountains have fallen into disuse and lie, long forgotten and derelict, in overlooked corners of the city. This book, beautifully illustrated with modern and archive photographs, documents the remaining fountains of Dublin, with each entry accompanied by a brief, and often colourful, history together with the precise locations and directions, allowing people to start enjoying these forgotten places once more.
