CLARKE'S CITY ARMS
CLARKE’S CITY ARMS [ ACTUALLY MENTIONED IN JAMES JOYCE’S FAMOUS NOVEL ULYSSES]
Every building in Dublin has a story attached to it and Clarke’s Pub is no exception to that rule.
No. 55 Prussia street was the address of the City Arms Hotel. Before it became a hotel it was occupied by the Jameson family [the whiskey family].
In the late 1700's the premises were home to H.S. Reilly, the Royal Canal director after whom the canal bridge at Rathoath Road is named.
John Jameson was the occupier of the premises according to the Primary Valuation of 1850, when the house together with the outhouses a yard and some land had a listed valuation of £126 per annum.
James Joyce frequented the City Arms Hotel when he lived in St. Peters Terrace, Phibsboro.
The ‘Joycean’ characters Leopold and Molly Bloom lived in room number ‘9’ from 1893 to 1894 while Bloom was employed as a clerk in the Cattle Market which was situated beside the building on the junction of Prussia Street and the North Circular Road.
