Location:
?i?See wikipedia - Fumbally Lane
?/i?Fumbally Lane (Irish: L?na Fumbally) is a narrow and historic street in Dublin, Ireland, south of the city centre in The Liberties, 'In name and character perhaps the most evocative of all the Liberties' streets.'[1] It connects Blackpitts to New Street and is close to St Patrick's Cathedral.

?i?History?/i?
This area was originally part of the Liberty of Thomas Court and Donore (later called the Earl of Meath's Liberty), having been granted by Henry VIII to Sir William Brabazon, whose ancestors were later the Earls of Meath, after the dissolution of the monasteries in 1538.[2]

This location was then on the fringes of the expanding 18th-century city when ?b?the lane itself was set out by local brewer and Quaker Jacob Poole in 1721 to connect Blackpitts (where he had property) to New St.[1] ?/b?The lane has long had mixed industrial and residential use. Historically, tanning brewing and associated industries flourished in this part of Dublin, partly because the River Poddle is close by. ?b?The industrial heritage of the area even dates back even to the mid 17th century and is linked to and influenced by both Quakers and Huguenots.?/b? In 2006 archaeologists found evidence of medieval leather tanning off Fumbally Lane and nearby New Street with wood-lined soaking pits and elaborate ditch systems. They also identified that one of the existing large old former brewery buildings on Fumbally dates from the 1740s[3]

Particularly brewing flourished here in the Fumbally/Blackpitts area since the mid 18th century. It is very possible that the first Dublin porter was brewed here. ?b?The Poole and Taylor families, who were related, had brewing interests here from at least that time and before.
?/b?
From 1779 Samuel Madder operated the Blackpitts Porter Company on the north of the lane, he acquired a brewery from a James Farrell.[4] In 1830 John Busby a distiller, acquired a brewery property in Fumbally and erected a new distillery here. This stone faced building features his initials JB and 1836 on a 'cast iron water tank'. This inscription can still be seen today. This particular refurbished 19th century stone faced building is part of the Fumbally Studio development and now home to both apartments and an office building.[1][4]

In 1862 John Busby listed as 'a licensed distiller and maltster' was still operating in Fumbally [5] but shortly afterwards sold out.

The City of Dublin Brewery was situated on the corner of Fumbally and Backpitts and between 1867 and 1883 they took over the 'Busby' buildings including a still house spirit store and a brewhouse.[4] Later the complex was used for other industrial uses including use as a textile factory in the late 19th century, many of the buildings on the brewing complex and along the lane later fell into disuse or dereliction. A significant detached three storey house possibly dating from the 1720s existed in the street until the late 1980s. According to an unpublished thesis, this rare example of an early Irish house may have been built by the relations of Jacob Poole a Quaker Taylor family [6] who had brewing interests here and in Marrowbone Lane. It may have incorporated offices for the brewery owner, as a deed from 1789 connects it to the brewery. This house was later used as a textile factory, housed 'Blair's Fancy Linens' and was subsequently burnt down and demolished c 1990 [4] Now only the large curved entrance walls and a cobble forecourt remain.

According to the 1901 Census just 68 people are listed as living on Fumbally Lane and 102 are listed in the 1911 census.
