No. 20 Meath Place is a terraced dwelling forming the northern perimeter of Brabazon Square in the Coombe area of Dublin. It was built by the Dublin Artisan Dwelling Company in 1882, which was founded in 1876 by members of the Dublin Sanitary Association, which included Lady Brabazon.
The footprint of the area in which the foundation trench was excavated measured 4.5m by 3m. The trench measured 0.7m wide by 0.6m deep. The ground was comprised of rubble fill made up of broken red-brick and mortar pieces in a loose brown clay. There were some glass and slate inclusions.
There was no evidence for any significant archaeological deposits.
