Terenure (Template:Irish place name),<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> originally called Roundtown, is a middle class<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> suburb of Dublin in Ireland. It is located in the city's D6 and D6W postal districts. The population of all electoral divisions labelled as Terenure was 17,972 as of the 2022 census.<ref name="cso2022"/>
Location and transportEdit
Terenure lies primarily in the administrative area of Dublin City Council but with parts falling in South Dublin.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> It is located south of Harold's Cross and north of Rathfarnham, and also borders the suburbs of Templeogue, Rathgar, Kimmage and Perrystown.
Terenure Cross (Vaughan's Corner)Template:Refn was at one time a terminus for the Dublin tramways, and is mentioned in James Joyce's novel Ulysses (Episode 7, 'Aeolus'). There were three tram depots in Terenure at one time, the main tram depot for the number 15 Dublin United Transport Company (DUTC) trams on Terenure Road East, another DUTC depot for number 16 trams on Rathfarnham Road, and the terminus of the Dublin and Blessington Steam Tramway on Templeogue Road. The modern tram system — the Luas — does not serve Terenure, but the bus routes serving it still include routes numbered 15, 15a and 16.<ref>Template:Cite map</ref> These bus route numbers were originally allocated based on historic tram route numbers.
HistoryEdit
Terenure, Drimnagh and Kimmage, then well to the south of the city of Dublin, were granted to the Barnewell family by King John in 1215.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation
|CitationClass=web }}</ref> The Barnewells gave some of the land to St John The Baptist Hospital outside Newgate, and Cromwell confiscated the remainder from them. Following this Terenure passed through the hands of various owners, including what is now Terenure College (bought by the Carmelites in 1860). In the seventeenth century, the main landowners were the Deane family, whose most notable member was Joseph Deane, Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer; his estates later passed to the Bourne family. Fortfield House was built around 1785 by a later Chief Baron, Barry Yelverton, 1st Viscount Avonmore. It was later owned by John Hatchell, the Attorney General for Ireland and passed by inheritance to the Perrin family. It was demolished in 1934.
The earliest reference to these areas can be found in a grant (ref Grant CCA-DCc-ChAnt/C/1206) stored in the Canterbury Cathedral Archives, by which King Henry II granted the lands Terenure and Kimmage (Cheming) in Rathfarnham to Walter the goldsmith ('aurifauber') in 1175. It has not yet been established how the lands reverted to the crown within 40 years.
On 2 January 1941, during World War II, the German Luftwaffe bombed Terenure, injuring seven people and destroying two houses.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
EducationEdit
Schools within the Terenure area include St. Joseph's BNS, Presentation Primary School,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Presentation College<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> (was Presentation secondary school; renamed in 2004), Terenure College and Our Lady's Secondary school.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
ReligionEdit
The Catholic parish church of St. Joseph in Terenure is an impressive edifice with a stained glass window by Harry Clarke. St. Joseph's school is on the church grounds.Template:Citation needed
Along with Rathgar and the area around Portobello, Terenure has traditionally been the home of many of Dublin's Jewish population. Terenure Synagogue, Dublin's main synagogue (Orthodox) is on Rathfarnham Road.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

John O'Mulloy.<ref>James Joyce baptismal certificate, on display in Terenure public library.</ref> His mother, Mary Jane (May) Murray, was born 90 metres from the church at Terenure Cross in 1859 in the pub owned by her father, John Murray, called The Eagle House.<ref>James Joyce: Genealogical Appendix Template:Webarchive Ricorso.
