Abbotstown

Abbotstown is an historical demesne and country estate in Castleknock close to Blanchardstown in Dublin, Ireland. Historically the estate belonged to a number of aristocratic families and formed the principal seat in the civil parish of Castleknock. Despite a significant level of suburban development in the wider Dublin 15 area from the 1980s onwards, Abbotstown Demense remained largely undeveloped, as it was held by several State bodies, and today the majority of the land in the demense remains unspoilt and is now used for National Sports Campus Ireland.
