Poolbeg Chimneys Prints


The Poolbeg Chimneys are an iconic Dublin landmark, over the years they have been a beacon from air, sea and land for people finding their way home.

These are some of the pictures I have taken of them over the last decade. In summer, autumn, winter and spring from sunrise to moonrise the chimneys always have something different, and they look wonderful in print and hanging as wall art in a home or office setting.

Standing over 207 metres tall above Dublin Bay "The Stacks" can be seen from far beyond the county limits and have a place in Ireland's heart. From one door to the next these towers go by various names, from the original Pigeon House to Dublin Towers to Candy Striped Stacks and Grandad's Chimneys, many people have different names for the two red and white towers that watch over Dublin and it's people.
