Making Belfield: A Landscape History of UCD Campuses and Some of its More Distant Prospects – a talk by Finola O’Kane

Obelisk 2023 – – – – on Sale

The seventeenth edition of the Society’s annual journal, Obelisk, was launched in the Function Room, Glenalbyn on Thursday 24 November. Our previous two launches were ‘virtual’ because of Government advice relating to covid. It was good to be back ‘live’.

As always we pay a special thanks to our contributors for their very enthusiastic response with material and without whose stories there would be no Obelisk. Over the years Obelisk has accumulated a rich trove of articles that help to give us a fuller picture of daily life and the streetscape of times past.

Obelisk 2023 is available at our monthly talks and from our usual outlets at €7 a copy :

South Dublin Credit Union, Lower Kilmacud Road, Lakeland Stores, 5 Lakelands Road, Centra Kildunne’s, 7 Drummartin Road, Adrian Peters, Newsagent, The Rise, Mount Merrion, The Village Cafe, Glenalbyn House, Stillorgan, and through our Online Shop. Online purchases for local addresses in Kilmacud, Stillorgan and surrounding areas that can be hand delivered will have any postage paid refunded.
