Christchurch Place (Irish: Plás Theampall Chríost)[1] is a street in central Dublin, Ireland, formerly known as Skinners Row or Skinner's Row, it formed one of the main thoroughfares in medieval Dublin.
This building dated from 1680s,[5] but a structure with a similar function had stood on this site from the early 1300s.
The Market Cross also stood near the western end of the junction with High Street.
[9] Throughout the late 1700s and early 1800s, Skinner's Row was the street where many booksellers, printers, jewellers and goldsmiths worked.
[3][10] In 1768, the first iteration of the book store, Hodges Figgis, opened on the street.
