    Yeah there's parking at the ground. Do you know where the Foster's Avenue entrance is? Go in there and head towards the right. There's parking up ahead on the right. The field that you'll have to walk across is a bit muddy so you might have to walk around it to avoid getting covered in ****.

    At the places marked with a white P on a blue background. Also, a little around the dashed path between Belfield Park and Foster Avenue.

    I presume the entrance from Fosters Avenue is for cars and not just pedestrians?

    Correct. Other paths (from deeper in the campus) are pedestrian only.

    East along the quays to O'Connell bridge, turn right, follow the outside of Trinity counter-clockwise, turn down Kildare street, clockwise around Stephen's Green to Leeson Street (3rd exit), then straight out the N11 until you pass the Belfield flyover (first flyover on the dual carriageway). Next right is Foster's Avenue.

    Dude - Google map it

    Get down the quays, across OConnell Bridge on to the southside, around by Trinity, head past Merrion Square, to Ballsbridge.

    Turn right just before the RDS up a mile, turn left at the big crossroads at Donnybrook garage and Fosters Avenue is a right turn about 3 miles from there

    Cheers John. None of them are one way streets are they? I can go back the same way like?

    Which way is best way, John's or Angus's?

    Angus' is better - forgot Leeson st. is one way! This is what happens when you cycle.

    A lot of the streets off of Stephen's green are one way, but you can generally just get the next one down and you're grand.

    The quays are 1 way too - north of the liffey is east-bound, south is west-bound.

    Btw, are you on foot here? You mentioned coming from Heuston. If that's the case, public transport is easier again - LUAS to O'Connell st., walk south to Stephen's green, 46A to Belfield.

    A few of them are one way streets. Just follow the signs for city centre when you turn left off Foster's Avenue and you'll be laughing.

    Shouldn't be more than 25 minutes driving from O'Connell Bridge to Belfield

    Absolutely. Ironically, about 15 mins on a bicycle.

    No, just said from Heuston station as that's the side I'll be coming into Dublin from. In relation to one way streets, I suppose I could turn a blind eye and pretend I didn't realise as "I'm from the country" Bloody tourists!

    It would be a lot handier for you if you stayed on the M50 for longer. Take the second exit after the NBA Arena, stay on the road that's parallell to the M50. You'll come to a rounabout- go left. Keep going until you get to the Goat pub- take a right. Keep going and Belfield Park will eventually be on your left.

    Yeah but if you say you're 15 (if you can get away with that) they'll have to let you in for the student price because you have to be in school when you're 15 or something like that.

    What street is the goat pub on? I'm using google maps to try and find it. Also, where you say to stay on M50, do you mean turn right as if heading to Bray, the roundabout where theres construction on at the moment?

    Goat Pub is on Lower Kilmacud Road, to the West of UCD and Stillorgan

    If on the M50, come off at the Templeogue / Spawell exit and follow signs for the car ferry - the car ferry signs bring you down Fosters Avenue
