Gunstocks: Dublin



Alder's Timber Yard
No 52 Bridge Foot Street
Dublin. 

                                    Advertisement for Walnut Stocks for Guns and Pistols
                                                                         c. 1780

The above advertisement emphasizes the importance of the guntrade to the Dublin economy
in the late 18th century.  

         The Dublin guntrade in 1780 included:-

           Alley Lewis 15 Cork Hill
Dalton Edward 46 College Green
Devine Thomas 3 Abbey St
Edwards William 5 Palace St
Morton William 31 Skinner Row
Rainsford James 29 Dame St.
Thorp Thomas Darby Sq


We are always interested in early advertisements related to the guntrade in Ireland.
