The Annales Dublin of Inisfallen is an eighteenth-century (1765) compilation of medieval Irish annals, reworked and expanded with material from later traditions in interpolated form, by John O'Brien, Bishop of Cloyne, and the Reverend John Conry. The work should not be confused with the authentic Annals of Inisfallen.

An edition in Latin was published in 1825 by the priest Charles O'Conor, although it did not complete an English translation. Some sections have been translated individually by various historians. Content

Dublin annals are recognized as an unreliable analytical source of Irish Gaelic but contain some valuable material that otherwise would have been lost by now. The nature of the new work makes the distinction between material of genuine worth of the dispensable very complicated.
