It is a suburban area at the foot of the Dublin mountains between Churchtown and Rathfarnham around the Nutgrove Shopping Centre. It used to be the home of HB, an ice cream company in Ireland. HB was originally an abbreviation for Hughes Brothers' Dairy, now produced by Unilever and part of the Heartbrand.

Tenants in the new units include Homebase Hardware, Harvey Normans, an Aldi supermarket and Harry Coreys Furniture. Nutgrove has a very young population.
