About Old Singland Road
Old Singland Road is an established urban residential area on Limerick’s eastern side, close to the Dublin Road, Ballysimon and Rhebogue. It has a practical, settled feel, with housing, everyday services and good access to the city centre rather than a village-style commercial core. Residents are within reach of schools in the wider Singland, Dooradoyle and city areas, while the University of Limerick and Limerick College of Further Education are accessible by road and public transport. Dublin Road and Ballysimon provide straightforward routes towards the city centre, the M7 and the wider east Limerick area, with regular bus services serving nearby corridors. Local shopping is concentrated around nearby neighbourhood centres and larger retail areas, including Childers Road and the Crescent Shopping Centre, while cafés, takeaways and pubs are available along the Dublin Road and in the city. Sports and leisure options include the University of Limerick campus facilities, local GAA and football clubs, and walks around nearby residential green spaces and the River Shannon corridor. The area also benefits from proximity to Limerick city’s restaurants, cultural venues and nightlife, making it convenient for commuters, students and families.
