Dunville & Co. Limited Royal Irish Distilleries

Dunville & Co. Limited Royal Irish Distilleries

The four-storey building with three hipped-end roofs, left of centre, and the chimney on the right, are also visible in the poster of the Royal Irish Distilleries. In the engraving the distillery is viewed from the north, where it is approached by road from Grosvenor Road, whereas on the poster the distillery is viewed from the south-east, across the tracks of the Great Northern Railway.

Dunville & Co. Limited Bonded Warehouses

Dunville & Co. Limited Bonded Warehouses

These are the Duty Paid and Bonded Stores, Adelaide Street, whose picture appears at the lower left of the poster of the Royal Irish Distilleries. The warehouses are viewed from the same direction in the engraving and on the poster. Visible in the engraving and on the poster, from left to right, are the two chimneys, the gable ends of two roofs, the sloping side of a roof, the square tower, and the gable end of another roof.

Dunville & Co. was incorporated in 1879, becoming Dunville & Co. Limited, as written on the engravings. The engravings would therefore have been made in or after 1879.

Because of the methods of production of the poster and the engravings, and the typography on them, it is assumed that the poster was produced some time after the engravings. Several buildings have been added in the intervening period, and some of the buildings have been demolished to make way for the new buildings.
