    Now that we've got the forum up and running a while and it seems to be attracting people, it would be interesting to see how geographical spread out, or concentrated, our posters are. It's not a public poll, just in case someone has particular concerns about revealing where they live.

    Mulhuddart, well grew up there, living in Santry now, but still pop home the odd time!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,060 ✭✭✭Gaspode


    Castleknock by postal address, but physically nearer to Ashtown. In fact Ashtown has basically separated this area from Castleknock proper.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 811 ✭✭✭mal1


    About as close to Coolmine station as you can get.

    I went to a mate's party which he told me was in Castleknock, when I got there I was in Ashtown, went to another mate's gaf and he told me we were in Castleknock but as soon as I turned the corner going home I was at the Carpenter's Inn or whatever it's called in Carpenterstown.

    Anyway what's the deal with all this lying, it's not even on the south side, c'mon like.

    It depends on what the deeds of the house say.
    Techincally all of dublin 15 is with in the Barony of castleknock :)
    The deeds and postal address say Clonsilla but most would say it is not as it is off the blakestown road.

    Clonee here, but not really as Clonee is in Meath so technically Castaheany, but not the estate that's actually called Castaheany....

    Oh sod this, I live in Dublin 15, near the Meath border. :) Why are addresses made so complicated in this country? It would be easier to give my feckin' coordinates... 53° 24' N, 6° 25' W. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,714 ✭✭✭ciaran76


    I am the same as you PauloMN !

    Ditto, Castaheany myself, though my family are from Clonsilla Village and i lived there for near 30 years before moving to Castaheany a few years ago.

    Inglewood(In the hood)/Clonsilla

    Ashtown


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,714 ✭✭✭ciaran76


    I used to live in Willow Wood from 1986 till about 2004 my house faced Inglewood but that can no longer happen as the Ongar feeder road from Hartstown now splits that little field that was there.

    Clonee :D

    Yep Im the same,our address is Cataheany,but not the estate.Its easier to say Clonee to people rather then Castaheany,cause nobody nows were I do be talking about.:confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,044 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    I went for a drive up through Ongar for a gander the other night and I was stunned at how many developements and estates there are up there and how they round out towards the clonee slip road. So that is where all the traffic comes from :)

    I use to live in Blakestown but I recently moved to Wicklow and I can't tell you how happy I was to get out of that dump :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 52 ✭✭ang


    Roselawn in Blanchardstown, nice enough area.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,451 ✭✭✭thehomeofDob


    Mulhuddart/Huntstown, near enough to the Huntstown school - lived in D15 for 17 years. Roselawn and Huntstown.

    Get outta our part o' town. We dont like your type around here! :):D

    Ongar meself--well ravenswood to be precise and I can be found scootering up the Ongar road everyday to work so no worries about traffic for me!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 183 ✭✭TragicJohnson


    I too live in Ravenswood, although I am not sure where that is.

    The estate agent said its Clonsilla, Bord Gais says it Castaheany, and Lets Eat In wouldn't deliver to me until I admitted Ravenswood was in Clonee!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,016 ✭✭✭Pat Dunne


    From Clonsilla myself.

    Ah well your not missing out on much.

    It has not been the same since it re-opened and jacked up the prices in 06. I have stopped using it, as it's far to hit and miss and the staff are not interested when they get something wrong with your order.

    Great shame, as it was fantastic when it went under the name of "3 in 1".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,050 ✭✭✭gazzer


    Ive lived in Castlecurragh in Mulhuddart for the last 5 1/2 years.. Really want to get out of the area now though.. Too much anti social behaviour..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,473 ✭✭✭RE*AC*TOR


    Postal address says Castleknock, if I'm giving directions i'll say Carpenterstown, but I could probably hit Porterstown church with a stone from my back garden (exaggeration).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,091 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Carpenterstown for me too. Laverna is the estate. Postal address is Castleknock though so I'll go with that option.

    Hello neighbour, I live about 150 meters from the church in Porterstown on the church side of the road:D
