William Robinson (architect)
William Robinson (1645–1712) was the Surveyor General of Ireland from 1670/71 until 1700. Born in England, Robinson was appointed to the post of Surveyor General by John Berkeley in his first year of office as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.〔(Archiseek - Architects of Ireland - William Robinson (1645-1712) )〕
Robinson is credited as the architect of several notable buildings in Ireland during his tenure. These include: Charles Fort in Kinsale (1670s),〔(Heritage-Ireland.ie - Charles Fort )〕 the Royal Hospital in Kilmainham (1684),〔(Royal Hospital Kilmainham - History )〕 St. Michan's Church in Dublin (1686),〔(Archiseek - St. Michan's )〕 St. Mary's Church in Dublin (~1700), "Marsh's Library"(1701), and developmental works at Dublin Castle.〔
From 1684 Robinson shared the post of Surveyor General with William Molyneaux, until his resignation in 1700, when he was replaced by Thomas de Burgh (designer of the Royal Barracks in Dublin - now Collins Barracks).〔(Surveyor Generals of Ireland )〕
Robinson was knighted and admitted to the Irish Privy Council,〔(Portrait of Sir William Robinson - Subject description )〕 but later implicated in corruption〔(Answers.com - Sir William Robinson )〕 and a financial scandal in the early 18th century.〔 He was imprisoned for a time,〔〔 before leaving Ireland in 1709.
