About the Area
Johnstown (Irish: Baile Eoin) is located 2 km north of Naas just off the N7 at junction 8. It is approximately 25 km from Dublin City Centre, and is a home for commuters working in Dublin and Naas. Most of the housing was built after 1990 and so it has a community website to foster local links. The main road eventually bypassed Johnstown in 1964 when the Naas Dual Carriageway was finished. This was enlarged into the 6-lane N7 road from Dublin to Johnstown, after which it reduces to the 4-lane M7 motorway that runs towards Limerick.
The main hosing estates in the village are Johnstown Manor, St John's Grove, Johnstown Gardens, and Furness Manor. Businesses located in the village and environs include Johnstown Garden Centre, Londis (Group Support Office and warehouse), Jordan's Centra, Kildare Kitchen, The Irish Equine Centre, and Palmerstown House golf course
