A photographic look at the doors of Georgian Dublin. The details of Dublin's Georgian doorways vary greatly from street to street and even from doorway to doorway within the same street. Archeire.com gives you the doorways of Dominick Street, Baggot Street, Clare Street, Fitzwilliam Place, Fitzwilliam Square, Fitzwilliam Street, Harcourt Street, Hatch Street, Henrietta Street, Merrion Square, Mount Street, North Great Georges Street and Parnell Square. All the photographs were taken during December 2003 and January of this year, and show the current condition of the doorways of the Georgian set pieces of Dublin.

These are the areas that the tourists visit and although most of the doorways are in beatiful condition, there are quite a few that could do with some love and attention. For many, these doorways are as much a symbol of Dublin as the Ha'penny Bridge or the Dublin Spire. It's also interesting to observe the variety of design. People tend to forget that the doorways vary in appearance from street to street and even from doorway to doorway within the same street depending. In the Georgian streetscape of relative uniformity, these doorways were often the outward expression of the owner's wealth and taste. Many of the buildings now suffer from inappropriate amounts of signage alongside the doorways or poorly positioned alarm systems and intercom doorbells.
