NUMBER 158

BENCHMARKS continued

Saint Paul's Church on King Street North in Dublin is one of three churches that are claimed to have been the resting place for the remains of Robert Emmet. But where in fact his remains actually ended up seems to be a mystery that is unlikely to be solved; short of getting Philip Marlowe on the case.

This 'mark is on the north side of the church.

Below: The 'mark on saint Paul's Church.

Above: The south-east corner of Saint Paul's Church looking towards Blackhall Parade, with the 'mark at bottom right.
