Parish Of Raheny (Church Of Ireland)
The Parish of Raheny is the modern successor in the Church of Ireland to an early (1152) parish, in Raheny, a district of Dublin reputed to be a site of Christian settlement back to 570. Today's parish comprises Raheny village and the wider district, and is in a Union with the Parish of Coolock. Its parish church is All Saints' Church, Raheny.
The other successor to the ancient parish is the Roman Catholic parish, whose boundaries have shifted somewhat from the historic ones.
