What is "glenageary"

Glenageary is an area in the suburbs of Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown, Ireland. While there is no officially defined boundary, it is surrounded by the areas of Dalkey, Dún Laoghaire, Glasthule and Johnstown. The Church of Ireland does have a defined boundary for the Parish of Glenageary.

On early 20th century maps Glenageary and Sallynoggin are considered to be the same place and it was not until the building of local authority houses in the late 1940s and 1950s in the townlands of Honeypark and Thomastown by Dún Laoghaire Borough Corporation that a clear distinction between Sallynoggin and Glenageary was created.

The Roman Catholic Parish of Glenageary covers all of Upper Glenageary Road, Bellevue, Avondale, Adelaide and Silchester Roads.

Glenageary is a quiet, affluent suburb and consists mostly of private dwellings with shops and some amenities in places.
