Strawberry Beds or The Strawberry Beds (Irish: Na Ceapóga Sú Talún)[1] is a locality and small settlement 7 km[2] to the west of Dublin City, Ireland, located on the northern banks of the River Liffey between Chapelizod and Lucan where the closest bridges span the river. The populated suburb of Palmerstown lies just south of the Strawberry Beds, but is inaccessible due to the Liffey which separates them. The R109 road, also known as the 'Lower Road' for the section between Chapelizod and Lucan, is the only road that passes through the Strawberry Beds. The area is protected by a Special Amenity Area Order (SAAO).[2][3]
