| Note(s) | 'On the west side of Merrion Square facing Leinster Lawn, are still to be seen the remains of what was once considered by the citizens a beautiful fountain and work of art.' ; Above the orifice of one of the fountains, is the inscription 'His saltem accumulem donis fungar inani munere.' This inscription for many years back has not been decipherable and the fountain is now more of a city antiquity than a public ornament. |
