The Walkinstown… Thoroughfair!? It being on the edge of the city is mad.
Bet the traffic was still shite.

Crazy how much dublin has spread in 60 years… and how anything that is now farmland, is still (mostly) the same field boundaries as 60 years ago.
Tallaght was just one estate Bancroft Ave/Park.

I can see where I used to live. Just about anyway. The clouds certainly helped hide the city from prying skies.

Firhouse road was a country road running between fields. Only the convent and a handful of cottages.

What I noticed about hese 1960s housing developments, is they’re all kind of designed with “loose ends” so to speak, to link up with whatever ends up getting built on the land next to them.
Then from the 80s or so onward, we forget that and just make every estate an impermeable cul-de-sac with one entrance branching off the main road
