Local places.
A clearer picture.
County collections include places near their towns and villages, sometimes across a boundary. Each place counts once in the national collection.
How MyMap worksHow many playgrounds are there in Ireland?
OpenStreetMap records 362 in the Republic, across 26 counties. That is how many the map has, which is not the same as how many there are: anything nobody has mapped is missing, and anyone can add it.
Which county has the most playgrounds?
Dublin, with 67, then Louth with 48.
Do the county figures add up to 362?
No, and they are not meant to. A playground belongs to every settlement within twelve kilometres of it, so one near a county line is counted in both counties: 122 of them are. The figure in the heading counts each record once.
Which town has the most playgrounds near it?
Palmerstown in County Dublin, with 41 within twelve kilometres. That is what is near the town, not what is inside it.
Where does this come from?
The places and counts in this directory are based on OpenStreetMap records. Of 362 records in this category, 7 include opening hours, 5 include a phone number and 55 include a website. Individual place pages may add sourced visiting information. Check the venue for current details.
