History
Ballinteer originally consisted of some housing roads off Ballinteer Avenue (Mayfield Terrace, Ballinteer Gardens, and Ballinteer Park), built between the 1920s and 1950s, and locally referred to as Old Ballinteer. Ludford Estate, off Ballinteer Road, was built in the late 1960s, followed by Ballinteer Drive, Grove, Crescent, Close. The latter four roads were originally called Lissadel Estate when built in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Woodpark estate was built along the Southern side of Ballinteer Avenue which included a new shopping area with a public house. The sprawling estate of Broadford was built between the mid-1970s and early 1980s along with the ex-council estate Hillview. The most recent estate, Ballintyre, built adjacent to Woodpark upper end, all the way to the end of Ballinteer Avenue, began construction in 2005 and was finished in mid-2008. Ballinteer Avenue also retains a large Catholic Church, large supermarket with second public house and boys and girls primary schools.
