The Octagon Westport 9.9.2014
Views from The Octagon, Westport. 9.9.2014
The Octagon, an eight-sided space at the junction of three major streets, was probably designed c. 1767 by William Leeson, who was also resposible for the Market House. The 3rd Earl of Altamont built a theatre on this “square” c.1785.
The octagonal plinth and column dominating the Octagon were erected in 1843 to support a statue of George Clendining (1770 – 1843), the local vicar’s son, whose entrepreneurial skills as an agent for both Lord Sligo and the Bank of Ireland made him a very wealthy man and were a huge asset in the rapid development of Westport during the early C19th. The sculptor is unknown.
During the Civil War, Irish Free State troops housed in the Town Hall used the statue for target practice and shot off the head. In 1943 the local authority removed the statue, crests and inscription.
In 1990 the vacant column was reoccupied by a rather Roman looking statue of Saint Patrick, crafted from Portland stone by the sculptor Ken Thompson.
The old Market House is an impressive structure with a pediment clock and an octagonal cuppola.
Nº1 the Octagon, owned by the Clendenning family until 1859, is now Dunnings Cyberpub, Restaurant, Guest House & Bureau de Change.
Octagon House, originally belonging to John W. Burke, Paymaster-in-Chief RN, and noted for its garden and orchards, was afterwards purchased for the Town Hall, and is currently undergoing restoration s a theatre.
