This Day in Local History
Did you know? · Dublin suburbs
Local fact
Fingal fact 307: Skerries 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 adds a different shape to the commuter belt: county-town, suburb, village, coast or upland rather than one single Dublin identity. This is the leap-year reserve entry for the local fact calendar.
Until tomorrow morning Have a lovely day.
