 | | Going to Sandymount on Sunday to pick cockles was a favourite amusement of the Dublin folk a hundred years ago. |
 | | Sandymount, though now a populous suburb of the metropolis, is remembered by many old people as an isolated village standing around Sandymount Green. |
 | | At the corner of Sandymount Avenue, on the main road to Kingstown, was an inn and snack-house called "The Bird House" - a cosy thatched tavern where travellers arriving late in the evening sometimes stayed the night rather than risk the remainder of the journey to town in the dark. |
