NUMBER 131
BENCHMARKS continued
M.C. spotted this one on Lower Merrion Street at the corner with Merrion Square East. It's on the base of wall of a house in which once lived Sir William Robert Wills Wilde and his rather more famous son, Oscar Wilde. Sir William's multitudinous accomplishments and qualifications, listed on a plaque on the front of the building, are truly impressive.
