About: Clonturk

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Clonturk (Irish: Cluain Tuirc) is an area on the Northside of Dublin, in Ireland. It is located in the south of the suburb of Drumcondra, just north of the River Tolka, but previously, Clonturk had been an alternative name for Drumcondra and the wider area. Clonturk lies within the Dublin 9 postal district. The name Clonturk translates from the Irish as "Pasture of the boars". There is some evidence that the name originally was Ceann Torc or the "Headland of the boars", but had changed to Clonturk by the middle of the 16th century, perhaps under the influence of the more famous neighbouring placename Clontarf.
