Sean O'Casey (1880-1964). "He loved the smell of the hawthorn tree. The spice of Ireland, Ireland’s Hawthorn tree. And this grand tree was theirs. Right at the top of the little street it stood for everyone in the street to see. The people of the street were always watching it, except in winter when it was bare and bony, cold and crooked. But the minute it budded, they took their eyes to it, and called it lovely." Sean O'Casey - playwright, writer and socialist lived here from 1889 to 1897. Many of the characters in his plays are based on the people of this area. Erected on the 50th anniversary of his death 2014.

In Memory of an Irish Patriot Patrick Heeney 1881 - 1911 In 1907 the music of the Irish National Anthem, Amhrán na bhFiann (The Soldier's Song), was composed by Patrick Heeney at his home here at 101 Mecklenburgh Street (renamed Railway Street). His fellow Irish patriot, Peadar Kearney, wrote the song's lyrics, also in 1907 and assisted Heeney with the music. Patrick Heeney never lived to see his music become famous; he died in abject poverty in 1911 aged 29. He lies buried in an unknown grave in a Drumcondra Cemetery in Dublin. The song became the battle hymn for the men and women of the 1916 Easter Rising and was later sung in various British internment camps and prisons. In 1923, the Irish language translation of the song was made by Liam Ó Rinn, chief translator to the Oireachtas, who, along with his four brothers: Christopher, Joseph, Leo, and Patrick Ring, all fought in the GPO during the 1916 Easter Rising, as members of the Irish Volunteers. "Beidh cuimhne againn go deo ar ár dtírghráthóiri".
