Martello Towers Research Project
Martello Towers Research Project March 2008 Jason Bolton MA MIAI IHBC www.boltonconsultancy.com Conservation Consultant [email protected] Executive Summary “Billy Pitt had them built, Buck Mulligan said, when the French were on the sea”, Ulysses, James Joyce. The „Martello Towers Research Project‟ was commissioned by Fingal County Council and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, with the support of The Heritage Council, in order to collate all known documentation relating to the Martello Towers of the Dublin area, including those in Bray, Co. Wicklow. The project was also supported by Dublin City Council and Wicklow County Council. Martello Towers are one of the most well-known fortifications in the world, with examples found throughout Ireland, the United Kingdom and along the trade routes to Africa, India and the Americas. The towers are typically squat, cylindrical, two-storey masonry towers positioned to defend a strategic section of coastline from an invading force, with a landward entrance at first-floor level defended by a machicolation, and mounting one or more cannons to the rooftop gun platform. The Dublin series of towers, built 1804-1805, is the only group constructed to defend a capital city, and is the most complete group of towers still existing in the world. The report begins with contemporary accounts of the construction and significance of the original tower at Mortella Point in Corsica from 1563-5, to the famous attack on that tower in 1794, where a single engagement involving key officers in the British military became the catalyst for a global military architectural phenomenon. However, the design of the Dublin towers is not actually based on the Mortella Point tower. -

Crannogs — These Small Man-Made Islands
PART I — INTRODUCTION 1. INTRODUCTION Islands attract attention.They sharpen people’s perceptions and create a tension in the landscape. Islands as symbols often create wish-images in the mind, sometimes drawing on the regenerative symbolism of water. This book is not about natural islands, nor is it really about crannogs — these small man-made islands. It is about the people who have used and lived on these crannogs over time.The tradition of island-building seems to have fairly deep roots, perhaps even going back to the Mesolithic, but the traces are not unambiguous.While crannogs in most cases have been understood in utilitarian terms as defended settlements and workshops for the wealthier parts of society, or as fishing platforms, this is not the whole story.I am interested in learning more about them than this.There are many other ways to defend property than to build islands, and there are many easier ways to fish. In this book I would like to explore why island-building made sense to people at different times. I also want to consider how the use of islands affects the way people perceive themselves and their landscape, in line with much contemporary interpretative archaeology,and how people have drawn on the landscape to create and maintain long-term social institutions as well as to bring about change. The book covers a long time-period, from the Mesolithic to the present. However, the geographical scope is narrow. It focuses on the region around Lough Gara in the north-west of Ireland and is built on substantial fieldwork in this area. -
Remarks for Chairman Fred Hochberg American Association of Port Authorities Spring Conference Washington, DC – March 25Th, 2014
Remarks for Chairman Fred Hochberg American Association of Port Authorities Spring Conference Washington, DC – March 25th, 2014 Good afternoon. Thank you, Kurt, for that introduction, and thanks for inviting me to join you here today. I’ve always felt a strong connection to the work you do as Port Authority professionals. And that’s for two reasons: one nostalgic, and one professional. The first reason goes back to 1967, when I was 15 years old. Yes, I’ll do the math for you—I’m 62 today. That year, I had the opportunity to board a freighter headed from Brooklyn to southern Africa. The carrier was a company called Farrell Lines. Today, Farrell Lines still operates a fleet under the Danish Maersk Line, carrying American military cargoes across the Atlantic. On the voyage I took as a teenager, we made our way around the Cape of Good Hope, stopping at a number of ports along the way. I visited Namibia, which at the time was still called German South-West Africa. I visited Angola. I visited the city of Maputo in Mozambique, which was then known as Lourenço Marques. Of course, I had no idea at the time that I’d ever be back in Mozambique, let alone as a government employee. But 45 years later, I was there again—this time to promote U.S. energy and infrastructure investment. As a young man, experiencing a new and mysterious continent was the thrill of a lifetime. And I’ll never forget how it felt to be on that freighter, making our way through bustling harbors, exploring southern Africa port by port. -

Tarbert Castle
TARBERT CASTLE EXCAVATION PROJECT DESIGN March 2018 Roderick Regan Tarbert Castle: Our Castle of Kings A Community Archaeological Excavation. Many questions remain as to the origin of Tarbert castle, its development and its layout, while the function of many of its component features remain unclear. Also unclear is whether the remains of medieval royal burgh extend along the ridge to the south of the castle. A programme of community archaeological excavation would answer some of these questions, leading to a better interpretation, presentation and future protection of the castle, while promoting the castle as an important place through generated publicity and the excitement of local involvement. Several areas within the castle itself readily suggest areas of potential investigation, particularly the building ranges lining the inner bailey and the presumed entrance into the outer bailey. Beyond the castle to the south are evidence of ditches and terracing while anomalies detected during a previous geophysical survey suggest further fruitful areas of investigation, which might help establish the presence of the putative medieval burgh. A programme of archaeology involving the community of Tarbert would not only shed light on this important medieval monument but would help to ensure it remained a ‘very centrical place’ in the future.
