Dardistown, Dublin
Townland in County Dublin, Ireland From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dardistown (Irish name: Baile an Daidisigh) is a townland in the civil parish of Santry, located in Fingal, Ireland.[1] This small populated area is located southeast of Dublin Airport.
One of the long term car parks for the Airport is in the townland. Dardistown Cemetery is on the Collinstown section of the old Swords Road.
Two streams, the Cuckoo Stream and the Turnapin Stream, pass through Dardistown; they later meet to form the Mayne River.
Dardistown was intended to be the site of a station on the proposed Dublin Metro, with Metro West terminating there, and Metro North passing southwards through Dardistown to St Stephen's Green in Dublin city centre, and northwards to Swords.[citation needed] However, in an announcement in 2011, the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Leo Varadkar, said that the plans for Metro North would be deferred 'until further notice' due to a recession.[citation needed]
