When you turn into Dalton Drive off Dr Mannix Road, you immediately see why so many people would love to call this home. Dalton Drive is in the heart of Salthill just a stroll from the Promenade and is a beautiful tree lined avenue with wide footpaths and large grass verges in front of each house on both sides of the road. Such residential developments are a thing of the past, built when large gardens and spacious living accommodation were not additional extras. No 3 Dalton Drive is one of the very few homes to be offered for sale on Dalton Drive since its construction just over 45 years ago. Number 3 has been lovingly maintained and is ready to move into.

St Mary’s opened in 1912 with 60 boarders and 17 day boys. The first school sports there took place in 1928, and since then the college has produced many fine athletes in track and field. The first mention of All-Ireland sports in the annals of the school concerns Tom Fahy, who in 1938 set a new Irish record for the 12lb shot. In 1939 the school won its first Connacht Schools title; in 1943, it won three titles, four in 1946, and five in 1947. In that last year, one athlete, Martin Kilmartin, won three golds, and set records in both the triple jump and the long jump. In 1948 the college again won five titles, and in 1950 John Linnane set a new Irish record in the pole vault.
