Newbridge is very well known as a shopping town. the recent opening of the Whitewater shopping centre has seen the arrival of national and international retail outlets and a 500-seater food court. Newbridge is also home to the very busy Riverbank Arts Centre, a cinema and a host of performing drama groups and children’s arts programmes.

Suncroft itself is a quaint village with a new local supermarket, pubs, national school and a very active community.

Suncroft is just outside what is sometimes called the 'golden triangle' of Kildare town, Newbridge and Kilcullen.
