Bachelors Walk, Dublin

Bachelors Walk (Irish: Siúlán Bhaitsiléir)[1] is a street and quay on the north bank of the Liffey, Dublin, Ireland.

Bachelor's Walk was named after the developer who built up the street,[3] extending from Ormond Quay from the 1670s.

[4] A Turkish Baths was opened on Bachelor's Walk in the 1770s by Achmet Borumborad, an Irish man who masqueraded as a Turk for a period in the late eighteenth century.

[9] In July 1914, a hostile crowd accosted a column of troops of the King's Own Scottish Borderers on Bachelors Walk.

[10][11] The troops responded to stone throwing with bayonets and rifle fire, resulting in the deaths of several civilians and injuries to dozens more.

Prisoners are marched, under guard, along Bachelors Walk following the Easter Rising of 1916
