Little Museum of Dublin edit

Hi guys, please let me know what you think about this new element:

In 1756, John Rocque created the first printed map of Dublin. The Little Museum of Dublin, a Georgian building in St Stephen's Green, is on this meticulously detailed map [1]. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Léa Di Francesco (talkcontribs) 11:19, 14 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Oppose The claim that Rocque created the first detailed printed map of Dublin is potentially noteworthy, and is currently in the article – but it needs a proper source to support it. The fact that among thousands of buildings identifiable on the map, one, 250 years later, was turned into a local history museum, is utter trivia, and there is absolutely no justification for mentioning it.
