'School' 22 Rock Rd Blackrock 1911 ?
« on: Sunday 16 June 19 22:04 BST (UK) »
Can anyone enlighten me as to what type of School/Institution was located at this address 22.1 Rock Rd Blackrock in 1911?
Was it the Institution known as Birds Nest?

Bird's Nest wasn't on Rock Road!

If it is the Bird's Nest you want then Googling   bird's nest orphanage dublin   will get you the address.

I made a presumption when I came across a young orphan boy linked to the Rock rd address, didnt realise that it was the famous Blackrock college.
Thank you.
