About Oldbawn
Oldbawn is a mainly residential neighbourhood in south-west Dublin, within the D24 area and close to Firhouse, Bohernabreena, Tallaght and Kilnamanagh. It has an established, family-oriented feel, with quiet housing estates, mature green spaces and convenient access to the wider Tallaght area. Local schooling includes St Dominic’s National School, while secondary schools and further education are available nearby in Tallaght and Firhouse. Residents generally rely on Dublin Bus services and the nearby Tallaght Luas terminus for city access, with the N81 and M50 providing useful road connections for commuters. Everyday shopping is centred on local facilities such as Saint Dominic’s Shopping Centre, with larger retail and services available at The Square Tallaght and Tallaght village. The immediate area has cafés, takeaways, pubs and restaurants around Tallaght and Firhouse rather than a dense central entertainment strip within Oldbawn itself. Mountain Park and Parkwood Lawn provide nearby open space, while Bohernabreena Reservoir and the Dublin Mountains offer attractive walking and leisure opportunities. Community life is supported by local schools, sports clubs and businesses including Mountain Park Dental Practice, making Oldbawn a practical base for families and commuters.
