Mecklenburk

• Mecklenburgh Street: a street on Dublin's northside, the centre of the city's redlight district in the late 19th and early 20th Centuries; formerly known as Great Martin's Lane, in 1765 it was renamed Mecklenburgh Street; in 1887 the name of one section of the street was changed to Tyrone Street (a vain attempt to rid the street of its unsavoury reputation); finally Tyrone Street became Railway Street; Bella Cohen's brothel, in which much of Circe – Ulysses, Chapter 15 – is set, was No. 82 Tyrone Street
