Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2003 / August 18 2003: North Wall clearance reveals historic vista

Clearance work has begun on the remaining "campshire" warehouses along Dublin's North Wall, revealing for the first time a vista of the historic North Wall railway station and the former British Rail Hotel, from across the river. The campshires are the spaces between the quay wall and the roadway where ships traditionally loaded and unloaded their cargos.
