The walking and cycling strategy for Castleblayney will help to develop the town with a network of safe and convenient walking and cycling routes that will improve the quality of life for everybody in the community by prioritising walking and cycling for travel to work, education, shopping and day to day business in the town whilst also providing high quality routes for leisure and fitness activities. 1.2 OBJECTIVES Consultation undertaken as part of this strategy has demonstrated the strong sense of community within Castleblayney and the pride in the existing facilities and potential future facilities in the area around Lough Muckno. There was a clear desire for improved walking and cycling provision for leisure and recreation and for access to key destinations such as the local schools and it was evident from the consultation that a multi- agency group consisting of local and countywide bodies should be developed to assist with the implementation of the strategy and to build relationships that will help promote walking and cycling within the town and identify future measures to contain the ongoing promotion of walking and cycling.

It was wonderfully quiet and provides a pleasant existence for its inhabitants. A lot of plans and work throughout the villages was evident – well done. THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT There are a great number of historic buildings in the village and these are displayed well. St. Marys Church and graveyard are well kept. The mature planting around the Crowing Cock and the School really hold their own in a year when the damp weather has not helped the flowering annuals. The entrance to the Castle and the historic area around the Church looked well. Heaveys in the main street displayed some nice sign writing. J Byrnes has a fine traditional shopfront – it is a pity that many of these are being lost around the country. Foleys displays wonderful thatch and makes a nice stopping off point for both visitors and villagers alike. Can any use be found for the old grain store as it is a fine building and should not be allowed to fall into disrepair? Consideration should be given to the replacement of some of the plastic signage over some of the shops when the time comes to replace them.

  • Bellingham Castle Wedding Brochure
    B E M L A L I N G H BELLINGHAM CASTLE Something OLD… Nestled in the heart of beautiful County Louth, Bellingham Castle dates from 1660 and is steeped in history. It has been burnt down (by King James II), been home to a brewery and used as one of the ancestral homes for the Bellingham family from the 17th Century until the 1950s. It also has a long and distinguished reputation as a location of romance. In 1905, Bellingham Castle was the venue for the wedding celebrations of Augusta Mary Monica Bellingham, daughter of Sir Alan Bellingham, 4th Baronet; to the 4th Marquis of Bute, John Crichton-Stuart. As the society event of the year, the wedding attracted worldwide media attention and footage from the wedding celebrations still exists. In December 2012, the castle - including the 17 acres - was acquired by the Corscadden family. The family also own Ballyseede Castle in Co. Kerry, Cabra Castle in Co. Cavan and Markree Castle in Co. Sligo as part of Ireland’s finest collection of privately-owned castles – Romantic Castles of Ireland. At Bellingham, the welcome is warm, the facilities luxurious and the memories, eternal. Our weddings are all individual and the castle is all yours for the duration of your stay. There are no strangers or intrusions – just discreet, unobtrusive service; allowing you to have the day of your dreams. David Maury Photography Front Cover by Emma Russell Photography Russell Emma Cover by Front 2 www.bellinghamcastle.ie www.bellinghamcastle.ie 3 Something NEW… Each wedding feels like something new for all of us at Bellingham Castle – we get excited too! As an exclusive-hire venue, you get our absolute attention and this makes planning your wedding such fun.

It had been seized from the Bellews during the English Commonwealth confiscations of 1653. As the estate was situated within the barony of Ardee, it became part of the land grant that was made to English Commonwealth ex-soldiers who had service in Ireland prior to 1649. Many of these ex-soldiers came from families who had been settled in Ireland during the seventeenth century or earlier. A William Peppard or Pepper, was the ex-soldier who was granted Lisrenny (Harold O’Sullivan, A History of Local Government in the County of Louth, IPA, Dublin, 2000, p132-3).
