The Metals Evergreens Walk

March 9, 2014 @ 12:30 pm - 3:00 pm

‘The Metals’ was originally laid out in 1816 to bring stone from the granite quarries in Dalkey to the harbour works at Dun Laoghaire. Between 1816 and the 1860’s over 600,000 tonnes of stone was carted down the hill on metal tracks to supply the stone for the East and West piers. A walk along the Metals not only brings you back in time, it also brings you from one of the country’s most senic areas to another.
