Camden Street
Camden Street () is a street in Dublin 2. It links Ranelagh/Rathmines ( Dublin 6) to the southern city centre of Dublin. It is divided into Camden Street Upper (southern end) and Camden Street Lower (northern end). History The name is likely derived from the 1st Earl Camden (1714-94). The fact that the street name first appears on maps in 1778 would rule it out as originating from his son, the 1st Marquess Camden (1759-1840), who became Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, as the 2nd Earl Camden, in 1795. An attempt to connect the name to Saint Kevin (Old Irish ''Cóemgen'') is regarded as spurious. A prominent company located on Upper Camden St for over a century was Earley and Company (1861–1975). They were ecclesiastical furnishings and stained glass manufacturers and retailers. The firm was one of the largest and most prestigious ecclesiastical decorators both in Ireland and Great Britain.
