  • The Castlecomer Plateau
    23 The Castlecomer plateau By T. P. Lyng, N.T. HE Castlecomer Plateau is the tableland that is the watershed between the rivers Nore and Barrow. Owing T to the erosion of carboniferous deposits by the Nore and Barrow the Castlecomer highland coincides with the Castle­ comer or Leinster Coalfield. Down through the ages this highland has been variously known as Gower Laighean (Gabhair Laighean), Slieve Margy (Sliabh mBairrche), Slieve Comer (Sliabh Crumair). Most of it was included within the ancient cantred of Odogh (Ui Duach) later called Ui Broanain. The Normans attempted to convert this cantred into a barony called Bargy from the old tribal name Ui Bairrche. It was, however, difficult territory and the Barony of Bargy never became a reality. The English labelled it the Barony of Odogh but this highland territory continued to be march lands. Such lands were officially termed “ Fasach ” at the close of the 15th century and so the greater part of the Castle­ comer Plateau became known as the Barony of Fassadinan i.e. Fasach Deighnin, which is translated the “ wi lderness of the river Dinan ” but which officially meant “ the march land of the Dinan.” This no-man’s land that surrounds and hedges in the basin of the Dinan has always been a boundary land. To-day it is the boundary land between counties Kil­ kenny, Carlow and Laois and between the dioceses of Ossory, Kildare and Leighlin. The Plateau is divided in half by the Dinan-Deen river which flows South-West from Wolfhill to Ardaloo. The rim of the Plateau is a chain of hills averag­ ing 1,000 ft.

Theirs were, with some exceptions, supporting rather than leading roles. In the feudal period, they were knights, not earls. Afterwards, with occasional exceptions such as Major General Patrick Purcell, who died fighting Cromwell,3 they tended to be colonels and captains rather than generals. They served as sheriffs and seneschals rather than Irish viceroys or lords deputy.

  • THE IRISH LEGISLATIVE GENDER QUOTA: Analysing Implementation & Outcome
    Bachelor Dissertation Seán Dunleavy - 15006816 European Studies – Faculty of Management & Organization The Hague University of Applied Sciences ………. THE IRISH LEGISLATIVE GENDER QUOTA: Analysing Implementation & Outcome ………. 08/01/2019 Supervisor: Dr. Krijtenburg Word count: 20,056 i The Irish Legislative Gender Quota: Analysing Implementation & Outcome Sean Dunleavy Executive Summary The title of this dissertation, “the Irish Legislative Gender Quota: Analysing Implementation & Outcome”, is specifically related to the Electoral (Amendment) (Political Funding) Act 2012, which requires political parties to field at least 30 percent candidates from the minority represented sex, with penalty for failure to comply resulting in a halving of state funding. Overall, given the difficulties observed during the 2016 general election campaign, and indeed now again in preparation for the next election, it is important to understand if these reforms are solely responsible for achieving increased female representation. Why difficulties during selection conventions are occurring, and how they can be best overcome. The main question is as follows: ‘Has the introduction of state mandated gender quotas for political party election candidates in the Republic of Ireland had the desired effects both in terms of implementation and ultimate outcome?’ Both qualitative and quantitative methods of research were conducted for this dissertation report. Qualitative research was used to collect and analyse, with the work of Irish academics Buckley, of University College Cork, Galligan, of Queen's University Belfast, & McGing, of Maynooth University, found to be of particular importance when detailing any aspect specific to Ireland. The majority of reviewed literature publications would take the form of academic journals and government sponsored publications.

  • The War of Independence in County Kilkenny: Conflict, Politics and People
    The War of Independence in County Kilkenny: Conflict, Politics and People Eoin Swithin Walsh B.A. University College Dublin College of Arts and Celtic Studies This dissertation is submitted in part fulfilment of the Master of Arts in History July 2015 Head of School: Dr Tadhg Ó hAnnracháin Supervisor of Research: Professor Diarmaid Ferriter P a g e | 2 Abstract The array of publications relating to the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921) has, generally speaking, neglected the contributions of less active counties. As a consequence, the histories of these counties regarding this important period have sometimes been forgotten. With the recent introduction of new source material, it is now an opportune time to explore the contributions of the less active counties, to present a more layered view of this important period of Irish history. County Kilkenny is one such example of these overlooked counties, a circumstance this dissertation seeks to rectify. To gain a sense of the contemporary perspective, the first two decades of the twentieth century in Kilkenny will be investigated. Significant events that occurred in the county during the period, including the Royal Visit of 1904 and the 1917 Kilkenny City By-Election, will be examined. Kilkenny’s IRA Military campaign during the War of Independence will be inspected in detail, highlighting the major confrontations with Crown Forces, while also appraising the corresponding successes and failures throughout the county. The Kilkenny Republican efforts to instigate a ‘counter-state’ to subvert British Government authority will be analysed. In the political sphere, this will focus on the role of Local Government, while the administration of the Republican Courts and the Republican Police Force will also be examined.

  • Croaghaun Windfarm
    Mountaineering Ireland’s response to Carlow County Council re planning application 2113 - Croaghaun windfarm 25th February 2021 1 Contents 1. Introduction and context 3 2. Impact on Walking in the Blackstairs Mountains 3 3. Landscape and Visual Impact 7 4. Planning Context 9 5. Conclusions 11 6. About Mountaineering Ireland 11 References 12 2 1. Introduction and Context As the representative body for hillwalkers and climbers on the island of Ireland, Mountaineering Ireland has a particular concern for ensuring the sustainable use of Ireland’s upland areas. Mountaineering Ireland therefore represents a community of interest in this application, drawn from Co. Carlow, the south east, and across the island of Ireland. The Blackstairs Mountains are a hugely significant element landscape of the south-east, this chain of rounded granite mountains rises between the beautiful Barrow valley and the lowlands of Wexford, marking the boundary between counties Carlow and Wexford and forming a landscape cherished for its scenic qualities. The proposal is for a development comprising seven wind turbines with an overall height of up to 178m, mainly within Coillte forestry on Kilbrannish Hill, immediately north of the Corrabut Gap. The site is 3km north east of the well-known Nine Stones viewing point and less than 5km from the summit of Mount Leinster, the highest point in both Co. Carlow and Co. Wexford. The applicant is Coillte CGA. Commercial windfarms on this scale should be described as wind factories. Mountaineering Ireland is strongly of the view that the proposed development would be unacceptably damaging to the visual amenity and landscape character of this area.
