Laughanstown (Irish: Baile an Lachnáin) is a stop on the Luas light-rail tram system in Dún Laoghaire - Rathdown, south of Dublin, Ireland. It opened in 2010 as a stop on the extension of the Green Line south from Sandyford to Brides Glen.[1] The stop provides access to the nearby suburb of Cabinteely.[2]

History[]

The stop was intended to serve a new suburb being developed during the Celtic Tiger. As of 2021, the land around the stop has not been developed and there are very few buildings within walking distance of the stop. Consequently, Laughanstown is the least used stop on the Luas network.
