you may well be right , which if true, would allow you to refine the dates even more to something like 1793 - pre-1815 (if E Jones had taken over the business, it should be possible to see if both co-existed).
I had a quick look and by the 1830's Hugh Foley (a not uncommon Irish early button back mark) seems to have taken the premises at 2 Cork Hill
