Portal Tomb / Dolmen, "Giant's Tomb"

Historical landmark

👍👍 Very impressive portal tomb, a hidden gem of South Dublin. Well maintained, and the area has recently been cleared of brambles etc and now in wide open clearing, a stones throw from the riverbed. I visited in December so the river was in full flow, stepping stones or wading were not an option. Inst...

Saint Begnets Church

Historical landmark

👍👍 Dalkey island is great. Ken the ferryman brought 2 adults plus child over and back for 20 euro. It was probably the lowest tide of the year and in trip to and from the island ken went a bit out of his way and brought us along the whole lenght of the island chain. There must have been over 100 seal...

Tully Church and Burial ground

Historical landmark

👍👍 Beautiful cemetery, it says people are not allowed to enter due to " dangerous ruins " what a laugh, you can easily climb over the walls .

Old Rathmichael Church

Historical landmark

👍👍 Beautiful place to visit. It is difficult enough to locate. The church is worth the visit. There are graves from 1800s - 1980 here. The remnants of the round tower and the Rathdown slabs make this a truly unique place. The chancel dates to the thirteenth century, but the nave may be earlier and sta...
