It varied between 3 and 4 seats from its creation in 1948. It was located on the north side of Dublin city.[1]

The Electoral (Amendment) Act 2009 defined the constituency as:[1]

It was subsumed into the new Dublin Bay North constituency at the 2016 general election.

The constituency's most high-profile TD was Charles Haughey, who won the first seat in the constituency at every election from 1981 until his retirement in 1992, when his son Seán Haughey won a seat but did not top the poll.
