Unexplained sound in Clontarf/Killester area, evenings and late at night

randy hickey

I wonder is it possible that this noise is running around the clock and can't be discerned during the day as it is being buried under the ambient noise of the city?

Also, and maybe I've got this arseways, but wasn't there an issue with weird noises being generated by the wind interacting with the Liffey Service Tunnel a few years ago?

Pre-blast warning at the quarry. Mentioned up-thread, a few times possibly.

Living close to the Artane Roundabout myself, don't think I've ever heard it up that far, although I think I remember hearing some sort of humming noise during the night that used to keep me awake a while back but its either stopped or I've gotten used to it! Always thought it was rail related! Sounds like its a different one anyway!

Nonetheless this thread has caught my attention......so out of pure procrastination, I've plotted those points where its been heard above on an editable Google map, which anyone with a Google account can edit and add markers too! Might help pinpoint it.....happy hunting!!

Link to map is here

Thanks so much for that.

Purely following this out of interest in the result as I don't live in the area.

From what is mapped so far it is centred around the Golf course. Is it some sound device meant to scare away nocturnal animals who might dig up the course.

Or someone is trying to fix a King of the Sheep competition using BBC sound effects vol 5

Yep - vicinity of Clontarf Golf Club/Mount Temple hockey pitch/Mount Temple School on Malahide Road first line of investigation now...

The sound wasn't on last night. What's really weird about it is that whereever you are hearing it (as per map above), it sounds proximate and loud. Move "towards" it and it mysteriously moves away!

I live by Holy Faith in Clontarf/Killester .. I'd put money on any four tone chime being heard is from the schools tannoy bell system.

I would imagine the chime being heard between 6pm-6.30pm is the end of evening study.. Anything between 630pm - 8am/9am is beyond me!

...but bell/chime timers run continuously. If it is set incorrectly it'll carry on doing so.

I'd take a note of times and days etc.

Its emanating from the Dart stations (its the status theme tune)
Is more obvious in different locations based on wind directions.

I still like the 'close encounters' like theories though

If there was bells ringing constantly from Holy faith,half the old biddies in clontarf would've complained about it...from the Indo to Joe Duffy.

This has been popping up all over the world.

Naw, it's from Dublin Port.

The lads on the cruise ships have the horns rigged for music nowadays.

Here is one:

And sometimes they turn the sound down a bit to drive the locals crazy

sound like that?

That sound is most likely caused by HAARP, who manipulate and transmit high frequencies based on Tesla Technologies that they stole via Satellite to ANY country on the earth. It is controlled by the bad Military, based in Alaska. Search and learn about HAARP. then learn about Tesla, amazing guy that knew in the wrong hands, his technologies would be compromised.

It hasn't been heard since last Tuesday.

Before that it was just under a fortnight.

We're all ears to the ground..

Are you sure you heard it at all?



Did you check the batteries in your hearing aid, dears?

Is it the cleaning out of oil storage tanks in the docks in preparation for statutory inspection ?????

I know the noise hasn't been heard in a few days, but I live on the Howth Road, close to Copeland Ave., and I've never heard this noise at all since the thread was created. How could it be heard in Hollybrook Grove but not across the rail track is beyond me. I go to Supervalu Killester once or twice a week and I've never heard it while being there either. However this thread has managed to freak me out
