Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    Is cosúil nach bhfuil aon bhaint ag an ainm seo le Clochar Mhuire (Doiminiceach). Ar an gcéad eagrán de léarscáil na Suirbhéireachta Ordanáis (1837), tá ‘Paradise Avenue’ ag freagairt do Bhóthar an Chlochair an lae inniu. Tá deireadh tobann leis an tsráid seo lasteas agus ní raibh aon sráideanna eile idir í agus Bóthar Eabhrac an uair úd. Nuair a rinneadh athshuirbhéireacht ar an gceantar seo i 1869, bhí na sráideanna leagtha amach de réir mar atá siad inniu. Léirítear Cross Avenue; ritheann sé trasna roinnt de na sráideanna nua seo, á nascadh le chéile. Agus cé go léirítear suíomh ‘St. Mary's [Dominican] Convent’ ar an léarscáil athbhreithnithe seo, ní raibh aon tionchar ag an gclochar ar shráidainmneacha na háite fós.

  • English

    This name appears to be unconnected with St. Mary's Dominican Convent. On the first edition of the Ordnance Survey map (1837), ‘Paradise Avenue’ corresponds to modern Convent Road. This street ended abruptly at its southern end, and there were no other streets between it and York Road at the time. When the area was re-surveyed in 1869, the various streets as we know them today had been developed. Cross Avenue is shown; it transversed a number of these new thoroughfares and connected them. Although the location of ‘St. Mary’s [Dominican] Convent’ was shown on this revised map, the convent had not yet influenced the nomenclature of the area: ‘Paradise Row’ corresponded to the modern Convent Road and Dominick Street did not yet exist.
