Clontarf Taxi

Clontarf is a suburb of northern Sydney located 13 kilometres north-east of the Sydney central business district. The name Clontarf comes from the Clontarf district in Dublin, Ireland.

The son of Queen Victoria, Prince Alfred, and Duke of Edinburgh visited Clontarf in 1868 where he was shot in the back by an Irishman, Henry James O’Farrell. Alfred survived because the bullet hit him at a point where his India-rubber braces, crossed over.
