[2] Historically a part of the hinterland of Clondalkin village yet lying inside the Parish of Tallaght,[3] the Kingswood area is now divided by the Ballymount Road, with roughly two thirds in Dublin 24, and the remainder, west of the road, in Dublin 22, and therefore served by different garda stations.
[citation needed] Kingswood has a number of shops, a pub, a pharmacy, a church and two community centres.
[citation needed] The scout den, which won the Irish Architectural Innovation Award in 1989,[citation needed] is beside the community centre and houses the 158th Castleview Scout Group.
[5] Kingswood Community College, also known as Coláiste Pobail Coill an Rí and opened in September 2016, is a secondary school which (as of 2019) had an enrollment of 524 pupils.
The club, which plays in black and white kits, uses both Ballymount Park & Kingswood Community College as home pitches.
