History of the area around Sorrento Point

There's an interesting publication at UCD with maps describing the history of Sorrento Park and People's Park (aka Dillon's Park).
there were many who came from the city and the surrounding parts to enjoy the glorious
view from the rocky eminences of the most picturesque natural landscape garden along the whole line of the coast upon this southern
littoral
Daily the new char-a-banc service plying between the railway station and Victoria Park along the noble Sorrento road is more fully appreciated, and as the summer days lengthen the tale of the tourists multiplies fast
