Bluebell (Irish: An Cloigín Gorm) is a small suburb of Dublin City, Ireland. Situated approximately 6.5 kilometres south-west of the city centre on the Camac, a Liffey tributary, the suburb borders the Grand Canal and Inchicore to the north, Walkinstown to the south, Drimnagh to the east, and Kylemore to the west.
There is an early reference in Bluebell cemetery Church ruins dated 1254 when the people who lived here were most likely part of the Barnwall's Drimnagh Castle estate and home farm. Bluebell was part of the Civil Parish of Clondalkin. Until the 1950s, Bluebell was mainly a market garden and farming community on the outskirts of the City. It was developed for residential housing by the Dublin City Council in the post war housing program, which brought an influx of young families into the area.
Over the years, the area became heavily industrialised development with the coming of paper mills, making use of the Camac river for their water supply. Gradually more industry moved into the area like Lambs, Roadstone, Nugget, McInerneys, Fiat and Volkswagen.
The Roman Catholic Church of Our Lady of the Wayside, is one of the larger buildings. It is situated on the Old Naas Road, adjacent to Bluebell Luas stop. Bluebell has one pub – the Cottage Inn – located on Bluebell Avenue. There are no supermarkets or major shopping centres. Small traders include newsagents hairdressers and fast food outlets which are concentrated on the Old Naas Road near the Church. The primary school is located on Bluebell Road.
