This Day in Local History
Did you know? · Dublin suburbs
Local fact
Fingal fact 241: Swords sits inside the Fingal County Council orbit; north Dublin coastal and airport-side communities connect to the wider belt by routes such as the M1. It is part of the Good Morning Dublin Belt coverage map because its daily life is tied to Dublin jobs, schools, transport and services. This is the leap-year reserve entry for the local fact calendar.
Until tomorrow morning Have a lovely day.
