    Inchicore

    Right, for those of you in the know.

    What would you consider this? Would you consider it west dublin, inner (city) dublin or south dublin?

    Personally, I have always considered it inner dublin/west dublin along with cork street etc but never south dublin......

    Its far too far out to be considered inner city.

    Its the start of west Dublin. West Dublin kind of runs at a vector from Inchicore to Tallaght to Blanchardstown.

    Politically speaking its gone from Dublin west to Dublin Central to Dublin South Central.

    It is in the south half of Dublin though

    Basin Street Flats, Fatima Mansions are all less than a half mile from Inchicore and they are Dublins South Inner City. I would refer to it as being in the South Inner City.

    I suppose the post codes have to start/end somewhere?.

    Dublin 8 is the only postcode that has Streets North & South of the Liffey
    for some reason.


    I suppose you can pick out Roads & Streets here and there that make the numbers system look silly but I think there's no way you could say Inchicore is City Centre,imho.

    Because Ballybough is closer to the GPO than Christchurch and Parkgate Street?

    And also aren't the postcodes broadly clockwise starting at the 12 O'Clock?

    Those are guesses before anyone attempts to pillory me!

    Some suburbs are divided by the Liffey like Lucan,Chapelizod etc but they're areas as opposed to post codes.

    What are the other ones?

    Dublin 20 is on both sides of the Liffey.

    Chapelizod Village to just beyond the Wren's Nest on the Strawberry Beds including one third of the Phoenix Park on the north side as well as Moutn Sackville School

    From St Lawrences Road (Lr Ballyfermot Rd) to St Lomans Hospital on the south including Palmerstown
