Coolock (barony)
Coolock () is one of the baronies of Ireland. It was constituted as part of the old county of Dublin. Today, it covers much of the northern parts of the city of Dublin and the south-eastern part of the modern county of Fingal. At the heart of the barony is the civil parish of the same name - Coolock - which is one of twenty civil parishes in the barony. Legal context and history Baronies were created after the Norman invasion of Ireland as subdivisions of counties and were used for administration. While baronies continue to be officially defined units, they are no longer used for many administrative purposes. They have been administratively obsolete since 1898. Nevertheless, they continue to be used in land registration and specification such as in planning permissions. In many cases, a barony corresponds to an earlier Gaelic túath which had submitted to the Crown. However, the status of barony is still used in modern times Location It is one of seven and a half baronies that u ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Coolock Parish (Church Of Ireland)
Coolock is an ecclesiastical parish of the Church of Ireland located in Dublin, Ireland. It is one of two successors to the ancient parish of that name, the other being the ongoing Roman Catholic parish of St Brendan. Early years The parish came into being sometime from 1536 on but the first clerical records related to it are later. One, the calendar of Bishops of Waterford, notes that Marmaduke Middleton, Vicar of Coolock (and Dunboyne, as well as Rector of Killure), was consecrated as Bishop in 1579 (he resigned from that office in 1581). The second, from 1615, refers to one John Credlan as "Rector of Coolock and Curate at Rathenny" (Raheny). It is believed that the predecessor of the older St. Assam's Church in Raheny was built in the same period, c. 1609. By 1641, the Vicar of Coolock (and again, also Curate at Raheny) was Thomas Seele, who was also during his career Dean of St. Patrick's Cathedral and Precentor of Christ Church Cathedral.

Santry
Santry () is a suburb on the northside of Dublin, Ireland, bordering Coolock, Glasnevin, Kilmore and Ballymun. It straddles the boundary of Dublin City Council and Fingal County Council jurisdictions.

Much of the old village is gone and where there were once fields full of crops, and wild woodlands of all sorts, there are now housing estates, an athletics stadium, a shopping complex, industrial parks, and busy roads leading to Dublin Airport which is nearby. Trinity College Library has a depository at Santry which holds three million books. Santry is also the name of a civil parish in the ancient barony of Coolock.
