Crown Entry is a medium-width, high-walled passage under a canopy of old buildings, giving it a characteristically moody, enclosed feel. It could well described as a “grim place”, a place that you would not linger in for too long.
In the 18th century, the Crown Tavern—positioned halfway down the passage—served as the birthplace of the Society of United Irishmen in 1791, a radical group inspired by the American and French Revolutions that conspired against the Crown.
Today it is an intriguing place for the photographer to visit, a throwback to a bye gone age.
