About Bray

Bray is a coastal metropolis in north County Wicklow, Ireland. It is located approximately 20 km south of Dublin town centre at the east coast. It has a population of 32,600 making it the 9th largest urban area inside Ireland. Bray became a inn town, and its proximity to Dublin make it a vacation spot for vacationers and day-trippers from the capital. Bray is domestic to Ardmore Studios, and a few light industry is positioned inside the city, with some enterprise and retail parks on its southern periphery. Commuter hyperlinks between Bray and Dublin are furnished by means of rail, Dublin Bus and the M11 and M50 motorways. In medieval times, Bray was on the southern border of the Pale, and the coastal district became governed without delay by using the English crown from Dublin Castle.

Inland, the countryside turned into in large part below the manipulate of Gaelic Chieftains, which include the O'Toole and O'Byrne clans. Bray features on the 1598 map "A Modern Depiction of Ireland, One of the British Isles" by means of Abraham Ortelius as "Brey". The Earl of Meath purchased the Killruddery Estate in Bray in 1627 with the established order of the Earl title. During the 17th and 18th centuries, Bray changed into a small manorial village, however throughout the latter part of the 18th century, the Dublin middle-instructions started out to transport to Bray.
