This Day in Local History
Did you know? · Dublin suburbs
Local fact
Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown fact 237: Stillorgan sits inside the Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council orbit; south Dublin coastal and foothill communities connect to the wider belt by routes such as the N11. It is one reason the What’s On section now refuses undated or stale listings.
Until tomorrow morning Have a lovely day.
