River Tolka
The River Tolka (; (アイルランド語:An Tulcha), "the flood") is one of Dublin's three main rivers, flowing from County Meath to Fingal, within the old County Dublin, and through the north of Dublin city, Ireland〔Doyle (2012), p. 13〕 (the other main rivers are the Liffey and the Dodder). By flow of water, the Tolka is the second largest river in Dublin,〔 following the Liffey, but runs more slowly than the Dodder. ==Course and system== The Tolka rises east of Dunshaughlin,〔Note: the Skane River drains the west of the village〕 Co. Meath, and by-passes Dunboyne, from where it receives the ''Castle Stream'' tributary. From Clonee, where it is joined by the ''Clonee Stream'' at the eastern end of the village, it flows into County Dublin.〔 The river continues through Damastown and Mulhuddart, Blanchardstown, and Ashtown (southwest of Finglas), and the southern edges of Finglas itself, and then the north Dublin suburban districts of Glasnevin and Drumcondra〔Doyle (2012), p. 14〕 where it comes closest to the Royal Canal near Binn's Bridge. At the southern side of Tolka Park it forms the border between Ballybough and Fairview, before entering Dublin Bay between East Wall and Clontarf.〔Doyle (2012), p. 15〕
