Goatstown (Irish: Baile na nGabhar) is a small Southside suburb of Dublin, Ireland.
Goatstown is primarily a residential area, with extensive housing developments from the middle decades of the 20th century onwards, with little local industry.
A portion of this land is currently being built on by Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown County Council, to provide social and affordable housing.
[citation needed] A Georgian house and remaining surrounding land, known as Trimbleston, was sold in the early 1990s to builders Sorohan Brothers.
Phase two of Trimbleston has recently commenced with the demolition of five two-storey houses on Goatstown Road and the construction of 202 dwelling units in their place and on land to the east owned by the Sorohans.
