Best Answer

A Viking settlement-

The Vikings settled in Dublin around the year 841AD. The 'Normans', at this point in time, were actually still Vikings - The Normans were Vikings who settled in Normandy in France, hence the name. They came to England and became the 'Anglo-Normans' and then came to Ireland in 1169AD, arriving at Baginbun in South-East Ireland.
