Dublin _________________________________________________________________________ 1 Introduction 1.1 This report assesses the archaeological significance of a proposed development site at Rathcoole, Co. Dublin. The study area is within the townland of Rathcoole on the southern margin of the modern village to the southeast of Stoney Hill Road, (Figure 1)1. The report was prepared for Virtus Project Management on behalf of Romeville Developments Ltd. 1.2 The main purpose of the report is to assess the impact of the proposed development on the local receiving archaeological environment and to propose ameliorative measures to safeguard any monuments, features or finds of antiquity in that location. 1.3 It is proposed to build 204 residential units on a 7.783 hectares site, comprising 7.783 hectares located to the east of Stoney Hill Road, Rathcoole, Co. Dublin and 0.202 hectares comprising an existing undeveloped portion of the Peyton Residential Estate, located to the west of the existing roundabout north of Stoney Hill Road (Figure 1). The development is comprised of 151 houses (including duplexes) and 53 apartments. Seven different house designs are proposed out of a total of 111 three beds and 12 four beds and 28 duplex (3 storey houses). The development includes basement and surface carparking, visitor bicycle parking spaces, public open space including a children’s playground and a linear park to the south of the site. It also includes the provision of a Creche and a Creche Outdoor Play Area and open space within the wider development. 1.4 No known archaeological sites are located within the development application area. Archaeological field inspection and geophysical survey were carried out at the site. No definitive archaeological sites were uncovered within the application area during the fieldwork. A single fragment of potentially worked flint was recovered from the surface of a formally ploughed field which maybe pre- historic in date and there is a suggestion of a potential site at the very eastern 1 ITM National Grid Reference 702224 / 726250 08/04/2020 1 Edmond O’Donovan & Associates Archaeological Report Rathcoole, Co.

Dublin _________________________________________________________________________ 1.5 As with any development site close to a Recorded Monument, there is a potential for archaeological remains to be uncovered during the construction of the proposed development. The archaeological potential of the site is based on its location adjacent to a Recorded Monument (Ref: DU021-030008), the site of Medieval Village of Rathcoole, located c. 300m to the north of the application area. 1.6 The application area is also located beyond the constraint area of another Recorded Archaeological Monument, that is the un-located site of a fort (Ref: DU021-033) after which Rathcoole derives its name. The site of the fort (Ref: DU021-033) is highlighted in the South Dublin County Council Development Plan and is positioned on the County Development Plan c. 30m to the northeast and is located outside and beyond the application area. The records of the National Monuments Service record the site as un-located and doubt is expressed in their records as to its location. There remains a possibility that the truncated remains of this site and other archaeological structures / finds may come to light in the course of development works proceeding. Accordingly, archaeological monitoring and test excavation is advised in advance and during construction work as a condition, should planning permission be granted for the development. 08/04/2020 3 Edmond O’Donovan & Associates Archaeological Report Rathcoole, Co. Dublin _________________________________________________________________________ 2 Methodology This report is based on a desk study, geophysical survey and field inspection of the application area. The following are the main sources consulted for this project. 2.1 Desk Study 2.1.1 Record of Monuments and Places The primary source of information is the Sites and Monuments Record (SMR) and the Record of Monuments and Places (RMP) held by the Department of Culture, Heritage and Gaeltacht (DoCHG) and digitally on line at www.archaeology.ie. The Sites and Monuments Record (SMR), as revised in light of fieldwork, formed the basis for the establishment of the statutory RMP pursuant to the National Monuments Legislation 1930-2004 (Appendix I), with particular reference to Section 12 of the 1994 National Monuments (Amendment) Act. The RMP documents recorded upstanding and sub-surface archaeological monuments, their original location (in cases of destroyed monuments) and the position of possible sites identified as cropmarks on vertical aerial photographs dating to before 1700AD (with some later ones being included). It is based on a comprehensive range of published and publicly available documentary and cartographic sources. 2.1.2 The topographical files of the National Museum of Ireland (NMI) The topographical files of the NMI identify recorded stray finds that have been donated to the state in accordance with National Monuments legislation and are now held in the museum’s archive. The files are provenanced to townland, and sometimes include reports on excavations undertaken by NMI archaeologists. 2.1.3 Cartographic Sources and Aerial Photographs The following maps were consulted corresponding to the location of the proposed development area: William Petty’s Down Survey of the Barony of Newcastle and Uppercross (1656), John Rocque’s map of County Dublin (1756), 08/04/2020 4 Edmond O’Donovan & Associates Archaeological Report Rathcoole, Co. Dublin _________________________________________________________________________ the first edition six-inch Ordnance Survey map (1843) and the revised 25 inch Ordnance Survey maps of 1912. Aerial photographs of the site are not helpful in assessing it as the area was completely built over prior to the advent of air photography. 2.1.4 Excavations Bulletins and Excavations Database ‘Excavations’ is an annually published bulletin, now funded by the Department of the Culture, Heritage and Gaeltacht, which contains summary accounts of all excavations carried out annually in Ireland. The bulletins range from 1970 to 2009, and can be accessed on the Internet at www.excavations.ie. Both the bulletins and database were consulted to establish whether excavations have been previously carried out in the vicinity of the application area under consideration here. 2.1.5 Other documentary sources The documentary and literary references consulted are listed in the footnotes within this document. The South Dublin County Council Development Plan (2016- 2022) explicitly protects Recorded Monuments listed on the Record of Monuments and Places, it was also consulted2. Please note that RMP Ref: DU021-033 has been listed in the plan although it is recorded as ‘un-located’ following field inspection by the National Monuments Service and is listed as a ‘Redundant Record’ on the National Monuments Service digital database3. 2.2 Site Inspection and Geophysical Survey A site inspection was undertaken on the 3rd September 2018 to assess the present usage of the proposed application area and its topography (Plates 1, 2 and 3). The ‘site of’ the rath of ‘Cumhal' was inspected as part of the field inspection (Plate 3). No earthwork or archaeological site is visible within the scrub woodland located 100m east and beyond the application area boundary. A geophysical survey was undertaken in March 2018 by JML Surveys to assess if ‘site of’ the rath of ‘Cumhal' could be identified (Figure 1). 2 https://www.southdublindevplan.ie/adopted-plan 3 http://webgis.archaeology.ie/historicenvironment/ See DU021-033 08/04/2020 5 Edmond O’Donovan & Associates Archaeological Report Rathcoole, Co.

  • Proiectos Romano: a Study of Roma Communities in Balbriggan
    Proiectos Romano: A study of Roma communities in Balbriggan Cairde is a non-governmental organisation working to reduce health inequalities among ethnic minorities and supports the participation of minority communities in enhancing their health. Cairde works through a rights based approach, believing that the absence of equality and respect for human rights is correlated to the existence of health inequalities. Musicantia is a Roma led initiative which aims to meet the human rights, social and cultural needs of the Roma population in Ireland. By using music, language, culture, and other expertise among Roma adults, children and young people, Musicantia actively promotes integration between their own and other communities. Both organisations would like to acknowledge the support of Nadette Foley, Ann Moroney, Dr. Gennaro Davide, Dr. Florian Maire, Paula Quirke, St.John Ó Donnabháin, Aga Wiesyk, Linda Riolo, and Dr. Ruth Ammann for their invaluable contributions to this work.

It is sometimes forgotten today but the Roma were one of the first immigrant groups to settle in Ireland as the short-lived “Celtic Tiger” years came to a close. As Europe’s perennial migrant people, it was they more than any group who initiated Ireland’s first tentative debates on issues relating to multiculturalism, immigration and Irish identity when a group of Roma were discovered hidden in the back of a lorry in Rosslare, in the mid-1990s.

    This is Knockrabo Knockrabo. Situated between the mountains and the sea, with inspiring views in all directions. 07 The Space for Families ABOUT THE LOCATION 15 The Space to Live ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT 23 Seeing the Vision Through FROM CONCEPT TO REALITY 31 Take a Closer Look DESIGN AND SPECIFICATION 44 The Professional Team DEVELOPER AND KEY PERSONNEL Part of Knockrabo is built on the site of History Mountanville House, a demesne that was the home of Henry Roe who is famous for having paid for the restoration of Christchurch Cathedral. The name Mountanville House was later changed to Knockrabo. The pitches, including the football pitches, were probably the best surface in the country. Many people from other sports clubs had the luxury of playing upon them. Many international teams including Portugal, trained on the pitches before going to play in Landsdowne Road. LOCAL RESIDENT The attractive house of Knockrabo, which stood opposite Mount Anville Convent, was a Victorian house of exceptional quality being located on high ground overlooking much of South County Dublin and a rooftop belvedere was added in the 19th Century to take advantage of these views. The house became the home of Chief Baron Christopher Palles in 1885 until his death in 1920. Later it became a boarding school for girls that practiced the progressive methods of English educator, Charlotte Mason (1842-1923). The school closed in 1960 and the Ski Club of Ireland built their first ski slope there c.1966 until the mid ‘70’s when it moved to Kilternan. In the early 80’s Knockrabo was owned by Dublin Gas employees, it was subsequently sold to Bank of Ireland who used it as their sports club.

HILLIS INTRODUCTION The whiting Merlangius merlangus (L) has for over 30 years been the leading demersal species by weight in the landings of commercial fisheries on the east coast of Ireland. The present study was com­ menced in the autumn of 1959, using samples of both the commercial fishery and the research vessel CLi Feasa. The present paper describes the commercial catch from port samples supplemented with research vessel material where extra detail is desirable. D~tai1ed description of the research vessel investigations, however, is, a substantial topic in itself, and will be the subject of another paper. This paper also describes the place of the Irish Sea whiting fishery in the context of the world population of the species. For the wider ranging geographical and historical details;, much use: is made of the various: pUblications, of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES).
