About The Mansion House
The Mansion House, Dawson Street, Dublin, is the oldest freestanding house in the city and the only surviving mayoral residence in Ireland. The house was substantially refronted in 1851 when the original brick finish was plastered, the windows were given robust classical frames, and the parapet was remodelled about a central pediment carrying the Coat of Arms of the City.
The Mansion House, Dublin, is of great architectural and historic importance. It is the oldest freestanding house in the city; it is a rare example of a Queen Anne-style house; it is the only surviving mayoral residence in Ireland; and it is older than any of the surviving mayoral residences in Great Britain, preceding London by fifteen years.
