    The well? Original water supply?

    (wild guess!)

    Or the corollary, early sewage disposal chute / it's right beside the river, after all.

    It is by the river, yes, and there is a Well, but it is sealed with a concrete slab :-/


    The tunnel is more like a service gallery circling around the building (from what I saw on an old map), might be coming from the original building before it's reconstruction.

    I think theres tunnels under a lot of Dublin. I used to work in the old Virgin Megastore on Aston Quay. That had a creepy old basement with tunnels leading off into the darkness.
