The Deanery of St Patrick was one of several manors, or liberties, that existed in Dublin, Ireland since the arrival of the Anglo-Normans in the 12th century. They were town lands united to the city, but still preserving their own jurisdiction.[1] The Lord of the Manor was the Dean of St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin. In the 19th century it was the smallest of the liberties of Dublin.[2]
