    I had to go to a business meeting and I think the place was called Furry Park or Furry road or something with furry in it, I thought that was hilarious! Tee Hee, Furry. Anyhoo, I don't know the north side very well but it was about 3 minutes walk from Killester Dart Station. That's roundabout Raheny way isn't it?
    p.s. you probably should have put this in the Dublin fourm, you'll get better answers there.

    Moved from AH.
    Raheny is on the Southside, right?

    As far as I remember, there's a furry park road off the main road that the 31 and 32 bus routes are on, just before you get to mastercare just before collins avenue, but I only remember it from when I was a kid so I might be wrong

    The original Furry Park House that the Road is called after is beside the garage on the Howth Road.

    furry park is in killester/clontarf area, but i suppose it's near enough to raheny so if you weren't from the area you might call it that. You can find it either by going in directly opposite the main entrance to st anne's park or by going down one of the roads just off the howth road at statoil garage. Yeah hope that helps in some way...
