History

[edit]

Arbour Hill is derived from the IrishCnoc an Arbhair which means "corn hill". The area was owned by Christ Church Cathedral during the medieval period and was used to store corn.[2] The area first appears on a map in 1603 as "Earber-hill".[3]

As part of his commissioned symphonic work "Irishmen and Irishwomen", the composer Vincent Kennedy included a movement titled "Arbour Hill".[4] This movement is a tribute to the Easter Rising participants buried at Arbour Hill.[5]
