The history of the area has been deeply influenced by many of its rivers and streams, of which there are about thirty in the county. By tracing the significance of rivers and streams in the lives of the first prehistoric inhabitants, the early Christians, the Vikings and the Anglo-Normans, this book throws a new light on many of the monuments and landscape features that are still visible today. This book seeks to unlock a fascinating new history of Dún Laoghaire Rathdown viewed from the author s historical and geographical perspectives, as well as from his own deep interest in our ancient rivers and streams.
