History and boundaries

It varied between 3 and 4 seats from its creation in 1948. It was located on the northside of Dublin city. It was subsumed into the new Dublin Bay North constituency at the 2016 general election.

The constituency's most high-profile TD was Charles Haughey, Taoiseach from 1979 to 1981, in 1982, and from 1987 to 1992. Haughey won the first seat in the constituency at every election from 1981 until his retirement in 1992. At that election, his son Seán Haughey succeeded him in the constituency.
