Mount Pleasant Square

Ireland

Mount Pleasant Square is a Georgian garden square on the border of Rathmines and Ranelagh, in the city of Dublin, Ireland. The Georgian houses surrounding the square were constructed from around the year 1770 and the last was completed around 1830. There are 56 terraced houses on three sides of a central open space, now housing an 11 court tennis club, clubhouse and carpark and a small public park. The north and south sides are crescents rather than typical straight borders of a square. The houses are by a degree more modest than the Georgian houses on other notable Georgian squares and were mostly built later in the first few decades of the 19th century for emerging middle class merchant and professional families.
