Summary

Description

This one gave me a real "What the hell" moment! Thought that it was a triumphal arch erected for one of the visits of Edward VII to Dublin (1903, 1904, 1907) but didn't know where it was. I felt that it was a bridge over the Grand Canal, but just couldn't work out where. And how and when such a monument disappeared? Passed it over to you, and HibernoManchego came up trumps, saying it "would appear to be for the 1903 visit and was in Leeson Street."

Some absolutely fantastic information has come in on this one - see the comments below!

Here's the inscription: EDWARDI VII D. G. BRITT. ET TERR. TRANSMARIN. Q VAE IN DITIONE SVNT BRIT REGIS F.D. IND IMP ANN SECVNDO
