| This is the coach house. Dublin Castle was established by King John of England in 1204 a.d. This Norman Castle was built within the south-east corner of the pre-existingViking town, which had been founded in the 10th century at the junction of the River Liffey and the River Poddle. |

| Cork Hill gate is where we exited the castle ground. The scuplture on top looks like Lady Justice with a sword and scales. |
 |
| The other gate had a Roman?? soldier. We didn't take the tour so I didn't get the details. |
