Kinsealy (or Kinsaley) is a village in County Dublin, in the north of the county, to the east of Swords. It is about four and a half miles from Dublin centre city, on the Malahide Road, in the former green belt between the suburbs of Balgriffin, Portmarnock and Malahide.
History
Samuel Lewis in 1837 describes the parish of Kinsealy as "well cultivated", with a limestone quarry and a holy well.[1]
