Robertstown, Co Kildare

The charming, picturesque town community of Robertstown is centred on the Grand Canal, which runs from the centre of Dublin City all the way out to the waters of the Shannon, the longest river in the British Isles. Along with the Royal Canal, which cuts through the north of the county, the canal once served an important tourism and commercial function. In the mid 1800's the Grand Canal once carried 100,000 passengers a year and was used by freight barges up to the 1960's. Although nowadays the canal have no commercial use they are still popular recreational destinations, both canals are used by coarse fishers and Roberstown is the base for canal cruises.
