What a fascinating area! So many interesting things to look at, and so beautiful, especially as its effectively a suburb of Dublin! Now repeat to yourself - AIR-A, AIR-A, not I-ra
@@davidmaxwell1708 I don't believe that's Bono's garden, his house is further down the hill but he did pass his house when going from the beach and just under the tunnel as he described it
Interestingly, Killiney beach was the location of the first seismic study using seismographs by Robert Mallet in the mid 19th century. Great video, I spent my youth exploring the place and still love it to this day. Thank you.
On the other side of Dublin, there is Eire 6 on Howth Head, near the summit carpark. There is a website with a lot of information. There is also a Coast Watching Service online archive that has some digital logbooks.
And "EIRE 8" is halfway between Bray and Greystones on the cliff-walk, just beside Cliff Manor. It's a good spot to fish from, but a dangerous bugger to get down the cliff to.
Brilliant video! Thanks for sharing it! Just a couple of observations: - There's plenty of “EIRE” signs along the Irish coast. - Hawk Cliff/Vico Bathing Place is Ireland's only official nudist beach. - Quickest way to get there is, on low tide, walk along Killiney Beach, Or, get off in Dalkey Dark station.
Lovely views, I'm from Shankill, just down the dart line from Killiny (Kill - I - ney, big emphasis on the middle i). I'd never heard of 7 Eire (AIR -AH) so kudos fo searching it out. Hope you travel a bit futher south and explore Wicklow a bit, it's called the Garden of Ireland and it must be stunning in this weather. Love your videos! btw, "kill" means church in Irish, so you will find it mixed in to many names as you tour around.
Really enjoyed that travel with you... I'm irish . I knew about these signs.. I just never knew where the were.. Nice to see how you appreciate history..... also you got great stamnia haha 😂
I live about a 20 minute walk from killiney Station and I always love going on walks in the area, I go around once a week, it's very nice seeing someone's first time impressions of somewhere I know like the back of my hand
Loved this video. I visited this area so much in my youth and didn’t know it was here, my grandparents and a lot of family lived in Bray just down the line and it’s one station we never got off at!
A wonderful video, as it is where I grew up and my sister was the person who actually located 7 Éire from an aero photo in our family hom. BUT I do wish that the names of key places were checked before they were bowdlerised: Éire, Killiney. Additionally the country was not the Irish Republic until 1949. At the time that these navigation markers were installed it was the Irish Free State and part of the Commonwealth,
The name of the State was amended by the 1937 Constitution to Éire / Ireland which remained a part of the Commonwealth until 1949 with the 'Declaration of the Republic' although, this was a "description of the nature of the State" it was not a name change. The name of the State has remained unchanged since the coming into force of the 1937 Constitution of Ireland / Bunreacht na hÉireann. The entity known as the "Irish Free State" existed between 1922 and 1937.
I really like when you come to Ireland, really enjoy the videos more so than usual, I had not even noticed the signage had changed along the line for the DART, I haven't been on it a while it seems, I need to take a trip I think!
Michael Dixon, Spent my youth Fishing on Killiney Beach (prounonced Kill in ee) and playing on Killiney Hill.Lived a few miles away on the inland side of the Hill.I was a Stonemason/Bricklayer by trade and worked on many Stone Wall and Houses in the area.He missed White Rock and The Mens Bathing place where nude bathing was the thing.Poorley researched and Eire sounds (Air aah).Beautiful area where the wealth live,never even mentioned Van the Man's house as he walked by.
Welcome to Dublin. I grew up in Killiney and I spent may hours of my youth walking around those hills and along that coastline. It is still one of my favourite parts of the world. As others have pointed out quite a few celebrities have taken up residence in the area and it is easy to see why but it still remains very accessible to the the general public.
Never heard about this and I work and live in Dublin my whole life... Great channel just discovered and subscribed. Loved the video... And it's pronounced "kill-eye-knee"
Great video! Did you know that you can see the "6 - ÉIRE" sign on the Howth Peninsula as you fly into Dublin Airport. Make sure you sit on the left side of the plane to see it 👌As you said you need to know where to look but it isn't difficult to see where Howth is. There is also an active group to keep the sign restored.
Thank you for your video posting. Very nice. As a few commenters have already remarked... Your pronunciation of Eire is amusing. But respect to you. On a similar note I treasure a photo of my grandson (10) and his sea scout companions cleaning the area around Eire 6 on Howth head Happy days
Nice video; the mispronunciations have been raised in other comments, but in the unlikely event that you go back, it looks like you’d have been better getting off the DART at Dalkey - an easier climb up to Killiney Hill!
Great video. Must check it out some time. Very interesting area and lots of very expensive houses as you pointed out. Just up the road from the railway station is a recently restored Martello Tower number 7. It was fully restored to its original state and has a full working cannon that was made in the UK to the precise measurements as these towers were built by the British in case of an invasion from France.
Killiney (kill eye knee) is an anglicised version of Cill Iníon Léinín , (pronounced kill ineen layneen) translated as the church of the daughters of Lèinìn, a local chieftain. He and his seven daughters converted to Christianity and built a monastic settlement. The ruins of the chapel still exist on what's now Marino Avenue West and marks the historical centre of Killiney village
@fcutdlady Thanks for that. I'd forgotten the origin of the name. I loved playing in the area and wandering the tracks on Killiney Hill as a boy. I don't visit it often but I will have to now seeing as I live quite near.
I grew up in Killiney. And if you walk up Killiney Hill from the village. Where the 59 bus stops. You will come across a ruin of a very old church. A local historian who's first name was Bridget, told me that this was the Church of Cill Inion Leinin. Sadly, a lot of the early Celtic stones, in the area were removed, and used for other purposes.
Looks like you took the scenic route to get to it - maybe that was intentional - but there is a far more direct route that you started out on - and doesn't require going up Killiney Hill and down again.
The last time I got the train was a few years ago, it was a nice journey, when my kids were young, we went down to wexford for the day, but only last year during the covid lockdown I drove down that way to Dalkey to get some second hand car parts, that couldn't be imported from China because of the plandemic, so I went to Dalkey Metal and Auto Recycling and baught some used auto spares there, the guys there are very friendly and take cash, and I like reusing old parts instead of using new parts, the men who work in Dalkey Metal and Auto Recycling, are indeed very helpful and will remove any parts for you there and many of them live quite close to the scrapyard, infact next door in the Dalkey migrant asylum center, so if your after a bargain or just want to do your bit for mother nature visit Dalkey Metal and Auto Recycling, Abdul and Abdullah will take care of you, and you might even see Bono driving around in his big gas guzzler heading off to his jet to stop Global Warming, and end wars,
The signs were used by the allied forces to help with navigation. Allied aircraft had all the Eire numbers marked on their chart's so when they spotted one the knew exactly where they were. Especially helpful for transatlantic flight's and flights given protection to allied shipping.
There's something almost touching that they thought all they had to do was put up big signs and the "Great" Powers would respect their neutrality. A superb wee video!
I had laugh when you said you had to get to Connelly station, when Tara Street station was closer to where you started this video, as it is beside the river Liffey. Also if you let me know that you were coming over to Ireland, I could have meet you and used my Drone to get shots of Eire 7 for you.
These were located all over the complete coastline of the Republic of Ireland. Numbered if I remember correctly from 1 to 83. The numbers were constructed beside coastal observation buildings located at headlands and other prominent coastal locations. The numbers were added primarily as an air navigation aid and that Allied air crews could easily calculate their location.
I was there on the strand with friends about a month or two ago. And there you are on Vico. Tons of dosh needed to live there. I did have a laugh at your pronunciation of Éire and Kiliney.
I seem to remember a martello tower near Mizen Head and also of course Marconi's tower where he made a radio transmission to America. Lovely part of Dublin though.
Just to let you know as a resident of Killiney, as you walked under the bridge of the tunnel at four minutes 50 secs, to your left is the back gate of Bono‘s house from U2, silly fact but hey ho, Great Vid 👍☘️
These were placed all round the coast so Allied aircraft, if the flew over Ireland, would know exactly where they were. Only allies were told which number was for which location.
I have been a longtime subscriber, run a small pub in Dalkey, would loved to have bought you a pint while you were in the area. if you are ever back in the area, let me know, and we will look after you 👍👍
Well, you kept that a closely guarded secret right to the end... intrigue and mystery...just slightly disappointed that it was a sign, not an engine, a gun or a plane...
The limestone to engrave those signs came from the pyramid that you showed, the gold cap top was melted down and several pieces of celtic style art was made.
We knew the "The Pyramid" on Killiney Hill as the Wishing Stones....near the druids chairs. You should walk around each level then step up and make a wish at the top. It's not Killinnee tho...it's Kill Eye Nee!
How strange I feel home sick and I live here. Oh there is a German Graveyard of pilots shot down up towards Johnny Foxes Pub a very pretty spot with a small water fall and river.
That right of way sign leads to Bono's house. He and his Mrs use it as a private path to the beach. In recent years part of it was bought by someone else and Bono and Ali are moaning that he is not giving a right of way!!😆🤣
There's another on the cliff walk between bray and greystones that was rediscovered not long ago after either a very hot summer or a gorse fire... I can't recall which...
Hi, An interesting video very enjoyable, however the Killiney Obelisk was built as a centrepiece of a plan to landscape the hill in 1740-1741 the Irish famine did not occur until 1845 - 1849 there is however a mention of the harsh winter conditions of1741 - 1742 in the inscription on the obelisk
I grew up in Killiney and have lived my entire life in South Dublin/North Wicklow. Like the previous comment, I had never heard of this before.Thanks for making a video about this interesting piece of little known Irish history. But you could brush up on your pronunciation a little
There's a great one at malin head ireland most northerly point not sure of its designation number but you don't need a drone as its on a steep slope at a cliff top and is viewed by looking down the slope from atop
You would think after going to all the trouble searching, walking, climbing, etc. he would at least have found out the proper pronunciation of the sign and the area.
I enjoy your wanderings. The E in EIRE should be an É which is pronounced æ. Killiney is pronounced kill- eye - knee. It is a bad anglicisation of Cill Iníon Léinín, the correct name.
What a fascinating area! So many interesting things to look at, and so beautiful, especially as its effectively a suburb of Dublin! Now repeat to yourself - AIR-A, AIR-A, not I-ra
It's a nice part of the world get off at Dalkey and walk towards Killiney
It’s the Skaughtisch accent lol.😊
Exactly...why don't people learn the pronounce name places properly.
Then he keeps saying kil-ini....for Killiney...😫
Kill-eye-knee. Kill-eye-knee.
Thank you for correcting.
You walked straight past Bono’s house on right and Enya’s castle You stopped at Enya’s castle .
And the garden he was admiring I do believe is bonos
4:55 he walked away from it. 5:47is Enya’s
@@davidmaxwell1708 I don't believe that's Bono's garden, his house is further down the hill but he did pass his house when going from the beach and just under the tunnel as he described it
Interestingly, Killiney beach was the location of the first seismic study using seismographs by Robert Mallet in the mid 19th century. Great video, I spent my youth exploring the place and still love it to this day. Thank you.
Absolutely fascinating stuff, and one of my favourite videos of yours - I clearly need to spend more time trawling Google Satellite! :)
steve theres another 1 on far side of dublin you can go do a video on
Great to have you in Ireland.. Hope you had a lovely time 🇮🇪😊
On the other side of Dublin, there is Eire 6 on Howth Head, near the summit carpark. There is a website with a lot of information. There is also a Coast Watching Service online archive that has some digital logbooks.

The reason they were all number was for American planes to let them know where abouts in Ireland they were passing.
What a fun adventure, trains, seaside and history. Only thing missing... a pint for a successful mission!
Brilliant video! Thanks for sharing it!
Just a couple of observations:
- There's plenty of “EIRE” signs along the Irish coast.
- Hawk Cliff/Vico Bathing Place is Ireland's only official nudist beach.
- Quickest way to get there is, on low tide, walk along Killiney Beach, Or, get off in Dalkey Dark station.
Delightful and surreal seeing you in an area I'm walking distance from!
Me too. 😂

Love your videos! btw, "kill" means church in Irish, so you will find it mixed in to many names as you tour around.
AFAIK it means church in Gaelic. So probably a familar prefix for our host.
It means church in Scots too as in Kilpatrick. Patrick's Church.
(One end of the Antonine wall on the Clyde)
❤️
@@josephturner7569 Scottish gaelic is very similar to Irish, with tons of almost identical names.
Cill means church and coil means wood. Both are anglicised as kill.
Really enjoyed that travel with you... I'm irish . I knew about these signs.. I just never knew where the were.. Nice to see how you appreciate history..... also you got great stamnia haha 😂

Just a note Killiney is pronounced Kill-eye-knee
and Eire 7 is pronounced Air-uh Seven
Surely getting the pronunciation of name of the place your visiting correct isn’t too much to ask ffs
How does an Irish person pronounce Herefordshire, Leominster, Worcestershire - so relax everyone!
@@malahammer those are all pretty simple apart from ‘Wus-ter-shur’
@@sl_721 and this one? "Leominster"
@@malahammer if I was making a video about one of the places, you can be damned sure I'd learn the correct pronunciation beforehand
Never heard about this and I work and live in Dublin my whole life... Great channel just discovered and subscribed. Loved the video... And it's pronounced "kill-eye-knee"

Very interesting, thanks for having me along. Merry Christmas.

This is all so familiar! I lived with a host family in Shankill in the summer of 1989 and rode the DART all the time.

Better tell him, Dalkey is pronounced 'dawky' not 'dall-kay'!
Great video. Must check it out some time. Very interesting area and lots of very expensive houses as you pointed out. Just up the road from the railway station is a recently restored Martello Tower number 7. It was fully restored to its original state and has a full working cannon that was made in the UK to the precise measurements as these towers were built by the British in case of an invasion from France.
Great video you make me now want to visit there thank you
Great video, you sure do a lot of walking for us. I can see when you are getting warm as you take off your hiking jacket and walk in shirt sleeves.

Fascinating video: I never knew such markings existed.
This area is one of my favourite places to fly my drones, they are constantly uncovering and renewing the old WW2 signs all over Ireland
A lovely video! However Eire is pronounced as "Air - rah" keep your great videos coming please!
How does an Irish person pronounce Herefordshire, Leominster, Worcestershire?
Really. enjoyable video. I live in the Irish midlands but have never had a chance to have a look around Killiney .
Looks like you took the scenic route to get to it - maybe that was intentional - but there is a far more direct route that you started out on - and doesn't require going up Killiney Hill and down again.
Very scenic route for sure
Sweet. Well done Scott - nice one!
Love your trips, we all love them.
I've walked those hills so often.......yet never seen that landmark. Note on the pronunciations though,
Its "Seven Air Ra"
and "Kill Eye Knee"
The last time I got the train was a few years ago, it was a nice journey, when my kids were young, we went down to wexford for the day, but only last year during the covid lockdown I drove down that way to Dalkey to get some second hand car parts, that couldn't be imported from China because of the plandemic, so I went to Dalkey Metal and Auto Recycling and baught some used auto spares there, the guys there are very friendly and take cash, and I like reusing old parts instead of using new parts, the men who work in Dalkey Metal and Auto Recycling, are indeed very helpful and will remove any parts for you there and many of them live quite close to the scrapyard, infact next door in the Dalkey migrant asylum center, so if your after a bargain or just want to do your bit for mother nature visit Dalkey Metal and Auto Recycling, Abdul and Abdullah will take care of you, and you might even see Bono driving around in his big gas guzzler heading off to his jet to stop Global Warming, and end wars,
I love there mate the other is on Bray head walk. Bray to Greystones
There were 83 of these around the country 6 EIRE is also uncovered
Yes there was over 80 Éire signs that were dotted around the coast in WW2 to warn bombers they were flying over a neutral country.
I never knew these existed, great find!
The signs were used by the allied forces to help with navigation.
Allied aircraft had all the Eire numbers marked on their chart's so when they spotted one the knew exactly where they were.
Especially helpful for transatlantic flight's and flights given protection to allied shipping.
There's something almost touching that they thought all they had to do was put up big signs and the "Great" Powers would respect their neutrality. A superb wee video!
How silly of you. The large "Eire" signs were to inform pilots, not to inform other countries.
It was to help American aircraft as the numbers would give them coordinates that were supplied by Éire. Don't be so condensending.
I had laugh when you said you had to get to Connelly station, when Tara Street station was closer to where you started this video, as it is beside the river Liffey. Also if you let me know that you were coming over to Ireland, I could have meet you and used my Drone to get shots of Eire 7 for you.
I think there is a direct provisions Centre opening there soon in killiney
When I was a young man I worked on some of them roofs you are walking past ,Another life time now

What a lovely seaside place
Excellent video 📹
It's 'Ayr-ra' and 'Kill- aye-nee'. Eire 8 is on Bray head. Not too far away. It was actually only uncovered a few years ago. Good video.
How does an Irish person pronounce Herefordshire, Leominster, Worcestershire?
Well, you kept that a closely guarded secret right to the end... intrigue and mystery...just slightly disappointed that it was a sign, not an engine, a gun or a plane...
The limestone to engrave those signs came from the pyramid that you showed, the gold cap top was melted down and several pieces of celtic style art was made.
@crashing down Nice hoax. Next you'll be telling us that the full pyramid is buried and what we see is only the top.
Great video Scott
We knew the "The Pyramid" on Killiney Hill as the Wishing Stones....near the druids chairs. You should walk around each level then step up and make a wish at the top. It's not Killinnee tho...it's Kill Eye Nee!
My hometown ❤
I seem to remember that the Dart passes under Lansdowne Road Rugby Ground. That was the nearest station yo my B&B man y years ago
Wow I haven't been near there since before 2018. I must check it out!
These signs are all along the Irish coast, i know of two really close to me in West Cork
EIRE = AIR-RA as the Gaelic for Ireland, to warn planes they were flying over neutral territory during WW2.
Fascinating history.
How strange I feel home sick and I live here. Oh there is a German Graveyard of pilots shot down up towards Johnny Foxes Pub a very pretty spot with a small water fall and river.
interesting recently saw one of the lookouts near slieve league cliffs in donegal
There's another one at Downpatrick Head in Mayo. They're fascinating to see up close.
You should have approached from Dalkey & gone down Sorrento Rd & then on to the Vico & on to the Ramps/Vico bathing place !
Fun fact: @5:47 Enya the famous Irish singer lives in that castle.
That right of way sign leads to Bono's house. He and his Mrs use it as a private path to the beach. In recent years part of it was bought by someone else and Bono and Ali are moaning that he is not giving a right of way!!😆🤣
These crop up from time to time when there are drought conditions, the imprint can be clearly seen.
There's another on the cliff walk between bray and greystones that was rediscovered not long ago after either a very hot summer or a gorse fire... I can't recall which...
I’m surprised at his Eire pronunciation. Probably his Skaughtisch accent!
This Scot knows how to pronounce it :).
Then again I live in Lilywhite territory.
Hi, An interesting video very enjoyable, however the Killiney Obelisk was built as a centrepiece of a plan to landscape the hill in 1740-1741 the Irish famine did not occur until 1845 - 1849 there is however a mention of the harsh winter conditions of1741 - 1742 in the inscription on the obelisk
fascinating ... how many more of them are there
I grew up in Killiney and have lived my entire life in South Dublin/North Wicklow. Like the previous comment, I had never heard of this before.Thanks for making a video about this interesting piece of little known Irish history. But you could brush up on your pronunciation a little

I am from Killiney it is a very nice area to live in
Really good
I used to have 2 big strong dogs who would pull me up that tunnel….long time ago.
You would think after going to all the trouble searching, walking, climbing, etc. he would at least have found out the proper pronunciation of the sign and the area.
get a life.
There's one in howth. 6 EIRE
who closed off the public right of way that leads to the road along Bono's house boundary?
Presumably, there must have been a 1-6 Eire as well at some time? And maybe other higher numbers?
7 Eire was visible at 8:29 below the White House to left (not the big white structure)
Where's the bath g area and what's it called great video b t w lovely spot
Led
Well that's 12 minutes of my life I'll never get back
You should have got off the train at Dalkey
I enjoy your wanderings. The E in EIRE should be an É which is pronounced æ. Killiney is pronounced kill- eye - knee. It is a bad anglicisation of Cill Iníon Léinín, the correct name.
I live 10 minutes from the beach. Its a shame the tide was in when you got there on the beach as it would have shaved about 45 minutes of your walk.
@Planes,Trains,Everything
Scotty it is not Ira, it is Aire as in Hay.
It's much quicker if you get off the train at Dalkey.
