A new page about a waterway that lost its terminus in 1877, was mostly infilled in 1927 and lost its last section in 1956. But you can still follow the Broadstone Line of the Royal Canal in Dublin. There's lots of interesting stuff to see, it's quite scenic and there are pubs serving good beer nearby.
