The area's former 19th century Catholic church, St. Vincent's Church, was previously associated with the Vincentian Fathers and deconsecrated in 2018.[2][3] The local GAA club is also named St Vincent's. Rugby union club Sundays Well RFC was formed in the area in 1906, before moving to Musgrave Park on the southside of the city in the 1940s.[4] Sundays Well Boating and Tennis Club is also based nearby.[5]
