In the entry of St Botolph without Aldgate (moved from the exterior of the church, where he is buried). From his listing on Find A Grave: Merchant and philanthropist. Born the second son of Henry Dove. Over the course of his marriage, he had five sons, and they lived in the parish of St. Clement Eastcheap. He served his apprenticeship in London finishing it in 1550. He was called to the livery in 1562, and rose through the ranks to become Master of the Merchant Taylors in 1578. He also was a member of the City Common Council from 1565 to 1593. He traded with both Russia, Spain and Flanders and was a member of the Russia Company between 1555 and 1590. By 1577, he also was a collector of a subsidy on exports. He outlived his wife and the Merchant Taylors' Company erected the monument to him on this death. He shared his financial success with many charities. He provided funds to the parish church of St. Sepulchre, various prisons and nineteen poor households. In his estate, he allowed twenty pounds yearly to be distributed to the poor and aged.

Built 1820-1840. Info from www.dublincivictrust.ie/building-projects/4-castle-street Tucked away on a quiet thoroughfare skirting the walls of Dublin Castle is the Trust’s most recently refurbished building. Saved from demolition in 1996 and refurbished over a three-year period, Number 4 Castle Street is the perfect example of a Dublin merchant shop house and is the only surviving Georgian house on what was one of the medieval city’s most important streets. Fully restored to its former glory, this handsome building is one of the last of its type and period to remain intact, now dynamically adapted as home to a variety of digital media and marketing agencies. The architecture of Number 4 is typical of the late Georgian, Dublin classical style, rising four storeys over basement with a shop to the ground floor. It features a quietly elegant façade of good quality lime-wigged yellow brick, well-proportioned timber sash windows which decrease in size as they ascend the building, and granite window sills and parapet coping.

The three Mastelli brothers (known as the "Mori") -- named Sandi, Afani and Rioba -- were silk and spice merchants from Morea who built a palazzo near Campo dei Mori in 1112. Legend has it that, because of their greed and dishonest business dealings, they turned into stone. The statues date from about the 13th century.
