Originally published in 1977, and now with an updated new Preface,
this volume covers the question of Irish urban origins in the
pre-Norman period, the character and development of the medieval
towns, the changing forms and functions of towns and cities in the
early modern period. It also examines the substantial changes in
size and form effected by population growth and town planning in
the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Ireland’s urban history
is unique and particularly interesting for the way it contrasts
with developments in the urban history of western Europe. Unlike
most west European regions, it was not colonised by the Romans.
