I had checked distance of Donnybrook to St Stephen's Green after locating Church on geoviewer - south west corner.
 Advised 2.5 miles or 3K.

probably Great Strand St. which is off Capel Street, so north city - see number 63 (Thom's 1862)

Listing for Eustace Street from the same directory for reference

I can confirm it's "Great Grand Street" - named in an 1835 newspaper.

Up to 1862 the papers refer to an "Anniversary Sermon" being delivered at Eustace Street and Great Strand/Strand Street.
Between 1863** - 1865 the papers name Stephen's Green and Eustace Street as the locations.
From 1866 the papers name only Stephen's Green.

Yet to find any reference to a Unitarian Church other than these three.

** year Stephen's Green opened

Never heard of a Great Grand Street in Dublin. Guessing it's a typo. Great Strand Street is there since the 1700s, maybe earlier.

Yes - a typo/misread. I transferred the info to my note book and then misread it as "Grand" not "Strand" - this is the 1835 snippet
