Mt Great Grandfather Arthur Hammond was born In Dublin 12/10/1873 How do I go about obtaining his Birth Cert?  As Far as I know he was not of Irish Descent I beleive his father was in the Army at the time as his parents were marroied in Manchester Cathedral and had an address of Barrack Road in Hulme cheshire

You can order a cert from the GRO - see www.groireland.ie

It's best to try to use the Civil Index references a s then they will not need to do a search. The index is available on familysearch at : http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#c=1408347;p=2;t=searchable

the details they require are name, record type (e.g. birth), year/quarter, registration distrct, volume & page

edit :

these look like the index details you need  :

 Name: Arthur Hammond
 year : 1873
 Registration district: Dublin North
 Record type: Birth
 Volume: 17 / Page: 569

Welcome to Rootschat. I've moved your post to the Dublin board since Arthur was born in Dublin.

To start with, he's listed in IGI (www.familysearch.org): Arthur Hammond born 12 Oct.1873 Dublin, Co. Dublin, son of Arthur Hammond and Mary Anne Thorpe.

He's also in 1881 census on the same site-
Mary Ann HAMMOND, widow, 38, born Chesterfield, Derby, England (formerly shopkeeper)       
daughter Mary Alice HAMMOND, 15, born Aldershot, Hampshire, England
son Arthur HAMMOND, 7, born Dublin, Ireland (scholar)
Address: 49 Castle Street, Farnham, Surrey, England

Index to civil registration is online (free) and gives the details needed to order the birth certificate-

Arthur HAMMOND 1873, Dublin registration district, volume 17 page 569
