On
Glenageary Road Lower in Dublin, this one - from Michael Byrne - has an
interesting back-story, as he explains “Many years ago, before the
installation of Glenageary Roundabout, the entrance gates to Dunmore
House opened onto the then crossroads formed by Sallynoggin Road,
Glenageary Road Upper and Glenageary Road Lower running East / West.
The "new" roundabout obviously necessitated the removal and
relocation of the gates, which were moved about 50m East. The
survival of the 'mark is testament to that excellent relocation job”.
