The five lamps on the north strand mean five streets which are Portland Row, Strand road, Seville place, Amiens street and Killarney street. The five lamps were put up around 1880 as a memorial to general Herny Hall from Galway who had served with the British army in India. When the Germans bombed The Nort hStrand the five lamps survived!!!and is still here to this day!
