Unlike its more public counterparts, this square remains largely private, with its central garden accessible only to keyholders. The surrounding streets boast some of the city's most well-preserved Georgian houses, which were once homes to Dublin's elite. A stroll around the square offers a peaceful retreat and a chance to admire the elegant symmetry of its buildings. This blend of history and serenity makes it a unique spot for those seeking a deeper understanding of Dublin's architectural heritage.
