  The Rathgar Residents Association: Home
The documented history of Rathgar began with the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland in the 11th century, when the lands of Rathgar became part of the home farm, or grange, of the Augustinian Nuns of the Abbey of St. Mary, whose convent stood at College Green.
The name Rathgar has been in continuous use since the 13th century and was used to describe the area bounded on the south by the river Dodder and on the north by the river Swan.
Until the 1840s Rathgar remained very much a rural idyll and much of the land remained under cultivation and was used by market gardeners and dairymen to graze their cattle.

The detached house is well back from the road with around 20 metres of garden divided into a grassy area as well as a cobble-locked car-parking area with room for at least six cars.
The roads are mostly lined with Victorian redbricks built for the burgeoning professional classes and the area quickly got a reputation for solid respectability and indeed a certain superior tone.
The area never became a "flatland" in the same way as neighbouring Rathmines and even those many Rathgar houses that were divided are being slowly brought back to single family use.
