Figure 17: Dentists, Health Centres and Hospitals in Ennis
Education As shown in Figure 18, the majority of primary schools are located to the north of Station Road/Carmody Street. Secondary schools are concentrated in the centre of Ennis, with the exception of St. Flannan’s College to the south. There are two schools for students with special needs located in the northern part of Ennis, namely St Clare’s Special School on Gort Road and St. Anne’s Special School on St Stenan’s Road. There are currently no third level education institutes in Ennis. Therefore, there is a trend that educational services are predominantly located in the northern part of Ennis, with few to the east and west. Residents in eastern and western parts of Ennis are generally outside a 10 minute walking catchment of schools.
Retail Figure 19 shows that retail services are generally spread throughout the town. Popular chain shops and supermarkets such as Dunnes Stores, Tesco, Aldi, and Lidl are located in Ennis, with smaller shops and convenience stores such as Centra and Spar serving various parts of the town. There is generally good provision of retail services within Ennis, with only a small part of the southwest not containing a retail facility.
