Ranelagh
Ranelagh (Irish Raghnallach) is a residential area and township on the southside of Dublin city, Ireland. It is in the postal district of Dublin 6 . It is one of the city's most expensive areas (second only to Dublin 4, according to an ESRI survey in 2002[1]), boasting fine Georgian and Victorian townhouses.
The district was originally a village just outside Dublin city until it was swallowed up by the expanding city more than a century ago. It still has a village-like atmosphere with many small family-run shops, especially around the triangular intersection ("the Triangle") that marks its centre.
The green Luas line passes through Ranelagh.
