The Grove is an urban wildlife sanctuary covered in both mature trees and saplings. It's located on Morehampton Road in Donnybook, Dublin 4. It is also one of the few examples of woodland in the Dublin City area and provides a safe haven for Bats, Sparrowhawks, Frogs and Foxes. The site was donated to An Taisce to preserve it for nature and it provides an amenity for people to enjoy and learn about the importance of biodiversity. The Grove was recently filmed as part of RTÉ Nationwide's profile of An Taisce.
