| Description | The hospitals, government buildings, churches and other premises included some examples of the work of distinguished architects from England as well as of Irishmen and from 1757 the Wide Streets Commissioners were able to make, in Dublin, Cork, Limerick and elsewhere, those handsome streets which, however altered by later building, are still fine features of Irish towns. The Georgian planner knew how to build a gracious town for the rich, a small minority in the population. Fortunately virtually all the travellers of the day and a certain proportion of the residents were sufficiently observant to discern — in a general but in a few cases a more specific way — what lay beyond the elegant life of the squares, crescents and town streets.
