Portobello is an area stretching westwards from South Richmond Street as far as Upper Clanbrassil Street bordered on the north by the South Circular Road and on the south by the Grand Canal. As a fast-expanding Dublin suburb during the 19th century, Portobello attracted many upwardly-mobile families whose members went on to play important roles in politics, the arts and the sciences.
