The Queen’s Colleges in Galway, Cork, and Belfast were established in 1845, and shortly afterwards, construction of the quadrangular building started in Galway. In May, 1847, despite the Famine, William Brady, the contractor for the building, advertised for 30 stone cutters and 30 stonemasons. Large working sheds were erected on the site so that the work could be carried out in inclement weather. There was no big rush to work from the stone men as the money he offered was below the going rate, but as it was a long term job with shelter provided, so it had a security of employment not available on other building projects, In the end, the building of the college did have a beneficial effect on the depressed conditions in Galway at the time.
