"Ireland's first public space named after a female Irish writer has officially opened in Dublin.

The Mary Lavin Place, which is located at the Grand Canal between Leeson St and Baggot St bridges, was opened by author Colm Tóibín, who was a friend of the late writer.

Mary Lavin, who died in 1996 aged 83, was known for her short stories and was also a celebrated writer of novels and poems."
