Phibsborough
Dublin,
Ireland
Phibsborough (Baile Phib in Irish), often formerly shortened to Phibsboro' and more recently Phibsboro, is located in the Dublin 7 postal district on the north side of the city. The area is very close to the city centre, about two kilometres from the River Liffey. The centre of Phibsborough is a crossroad intersection known as Doyle's Corner (formerly Dunphy's Corner). In recent years, Phibsborough has experienced a renaissance and house prices in the area, like in the rest of Dublin, have increased substantially. The area retains much of its original Victorian architecture, including terraces of red-brick houses and majestic churches, such as St. Peter's Church, as well as number of traditional Irish pubs such as Smiths and The Hut.
