    Reminds me of a spot out near the bridge at Templogue not too far from Terenure College.

    Swordscookie Excellent! That's where we thought it was, but weren't sure...

    Why would a Dublin and Belfast locomotive be hauling a tram around Terenure? It's a bit off their turf, isn't it?
  • derangedlemur said:
    The engine plaque seems to say someone (Rodgers?) and Son makers 1906/8.

    I'd guess that the suspiciously level bank may be a tramline - maybe the steam tram to Blessington.
  • derangedlemur said:
    After a bit of google mapping, I suspect that the suspiciously level bank may in fact be a reservoir dam. Edit: Maybe not - it'd be facing the wrong way.
  • Fred Dean Snr. said:
    If you wait 30 minutes, 4 trams will come along.
  • Dún Laoghaire Micheál said:
    I think I can make out a Tramp lurking in those trees.

    Roundtown or Terenure as it's called today.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    O Mac Roundtown because of that roundy configuration at the 'V' junction?
  • O Mac said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons One would assume so! It's a pity little remains. In this Google Satellite view the only evidence is a curved car park boundary wall and the curved roof of one house on west side.

    Remember this?

    Roundtown - " It takes its name from a circle of cottages near the cross roads, branching from Harold's-cross and Rathgar. " - roots.swilson.info/towns1848/roundtown.html . Fascinating how previous buildings leave their imprint on subsequent development, only seen in satellite photos. Like Roman roads in England.
