Tyrrelstown
Tyrrelstown (Irish: Baile an Tirialaigh) is a townland and planned suburban area within the civil parish of Mulhuddart in Fingal, County Dublin, Ireland. Situated approximately 13 km northwest of Dublin city centre, Tyrrelstown is often considered part of the broader Blanchardstown area. The development of the area began in the early 2000s, and it falls within the Dublin 15 postal district.
Tyrrelstown lies between the N3 and M2 roads. It is bordered by Bellingsmore to the north, Mulhuddart to the south, and Cruiserath to the east. Nearby is the Damastown Industrial Estate which includes an IBM campus. Also in the vicinity is a Bristol Myers Squibb facility in Cruiserath, as well as the Blanchardstown Corporate Park, home to companies such as PayPal and Ask.com.[citation needed]
The name Tyrrelstown (also spelled Tyrellstown or Tyrrellstown) originates from the Tyrrell family, including Hugh Tyrrel, who was granted lands in 1178 by Hugh de Lacy, Lord of Meath. Another notable figure, John Tirel (or Tyrrell), served as Chief Justice of the Common Pleas in Ireland during the late 14th century. Tyrrelstown historically formed part of the barony of Castleknock.
To the south of the area stands Tyrrelstown House, a Georgian residence dating to 1720. It is a protected structure under the Fingal County Development Plan. Around 1580, the land was granted to the Bellings family, including Richard Bellings, a key figure in Confederate Ireland.
Tyrrelstown is home to a secondary school affiliated with the Le Chéile Schools Trust and four national schools. These include two Educate Together schools (one being Tyrrelstown Educate Together NS), St Luke’s NS (Catholic patronage), and Gaelscoil an Chuilinn (under An Foras Pátrúnachta).[citation needed]
Tyrrelstown ET NS and St Luke’s NS were constructed using rapid-build methods by Western Building Systems. In October 2018, they were temporarily closed due to fire safety concerns.
Tyrrelstown GAA club fields both Gaelic football and hurling teams, both boys and girls, up to Under-15 level.[citation needed]
The Foróige youth service operates from the local community centre, providing activities for young people aged 10–18.
