graveyard at kevin street was the cabbage garden, the name has something to do with cromwells troops planting cabbages there. there was also a hugenot graveyard there, it is now a park and some of the headstones are still around the wall. st. brides church was in bride street, the other side of st. patricks park, on the corner of bride street and bride road where the iveagh hostel and iveagh baths are.
the shirt factory was called The Automac in the 1960's it is now part of john field road and there are new apartments (private i think) there too.
