This section of the survey for Kilconduff parish contains a description of the streets and buildings of Swinford and a listing of the amenities. The amenities at the time included a cinema, dance hall, branch of the Carnegie Library in the Convent of Mercy, two churches, Convent of Mercy secondary school, national schools and Convent of Mercy Dairying and Poultry School at Brabazon Park. An unusual feature in this survey is the inclusion of a copy of the results of an analysis of Swinford public water supply, carried out by University College Dublin.
