Introduction 1.1 Dissertation Intent Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin may have only visited Wexford, and indeed Ireland, on a handful of occasions but his imprint is still evident in the landscape today. He was undoubtedly a genius in his own regard and the level of design output in his short life is unparalleled. For many he was the primary driving force of the 19th century Gothic revival in the British Isles. In Ireland the majority of his work is concentrated in the county of Wexford due to his connections with John Talbot, the 16th Earl of Shrewsbury, Waterford and Wexford. At the time there was a demand for church building in Wexford and Pugin sold himself as the answer. Pugin developed a Gothic style of architecture that had a profound influence on church building in Wexford. Over the course of this study the author became more accustomed to recognising aspects of Pugin’s designs. During the author’s travels around Wexford documenting Pugin’s work, it became apparent that his style was copied heavily by contemporaries and followers throughout the county. The majority of churches that were built in Wexford following Pugin’s input have in some way copied or adopted characteristics of his designs. This makes Wexford a veritable Pugin paradise. This dissertation aims to showcase Pugin’s Wexford churches and to explain how he changed the landscape of the county forever. This research is focuses within the context of County Wexford and excludes his other Irish work as the south east was the epicentre of Puginian Ireland. Within Wexford, the author focused primarily on Pugin’s six churches and the gem of all his buildings in Ireland, St. Aidan’s Cathedral in Enniscorthy. It is to be noted that Pugin was not alone in moulding Wexford to his Gothic ideals. He also had a wonderful local framework of masons and clergy who made possible many of the projects that will be covered in this dissertation. Most notable is another architect, Richard Pierce, who was a Wexford man and Pugin’s clerk of works for most of his Irish endeavours. Without Pierce’s ability to bring Pugin’s designs to a reality then ecclesiastical Wexford would look very different today. Pugin is a widely celebrated figure in 19th century architecture. He has had numerous biographers, most recently Phoebe Stanton and Rosemary Hill, and his British work has been covered extensively by the likes of Paul Atterbury and Clive Wainwright. Pugin’s Irish work is not as well documented. A handful of essays by Roderick O’Donnell discuss his work in the greater context of Ireland. This dissertation is to act as a concise study of Pugin’s Wexford churches. It will comment on the buildings’ current conditions with respect to how they were originally envisaged by Pugin. The aim is to convey the importance of these buildings and to show that they are a vital part of Wexford’s architectural heritage. 4 1.2 A.W.N. Pugin (1812-1852) A. W. N. Pugin was a designer with very few equals. His repertoire of work includes buildings, furniture, ceramics, wallpaper, jewellery, stage sets and other things. In a creative frenzy he drove himself to an early grave at 40. This was only after he designed over one hundred splendid buildings, wrote numerous books on architecture and designed an almost countless collection of interior decorations. Born in London, he was the son of a talented draftsman who emigrated from France. His father instilled in him an appreciation for Gothic designs and he inherited a boundless work ethic from his mother.1 As a boy he was immensely talented at drawing and in his youth he travelled with his father, sketching all manner of buildings.2 In a meeting with a Pugin enthusiast the author was shown a selection of drawings from this time with his father and the quality is remarkably advanced.3 It is clear that his ability could not have gone unnoticed and by the age of fifteen he had already designed furniture for Windsor castle.4 He is perhaps best known for his contributions in London with designs at Westminster and Big Ben but he was also a controversial figure in architecture and religion. He converted to Catholicism at the age of 235 and he was convinced that there was a connection between “religious truth and architectural truth” as discussed by David Watkin. 6 He saw Gothic architecture as the perfect vehicle for Christianity as opposed to the then common classical architecture which he viewed as a by-product of the reformation.7 He wrote in his book True Principles that “...If we view pointed (Gothic) architecture in its true light as Christian art, as the faith itself is perfect, so are the principles on which it is founded.8” With his publications he ignited the Gothic revival and became its greatest exponent. 1 Rosemary Hill, God’s Architect: Pugin and the Building of Romantic Britain (London: Allen Lane, 2007), 61. 2 Ibid, 60. 3 Aidan Ryan, interview by William Conran, January 8, 2016 4 Hill, God’s Architect, 74. 5 Barry O’Leary, “Richard Pierce: Architect and Acolyte of the Gothic revival,” in Studies in the Gothic Revival, UCD Studies in the History of Art, ed.

  • The Archaeological Record of the Cistercians in Ireland, 1142-1541
    THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL RECORD OF THE CISTERCIANS IN IRELAND, 1142-1541 written by SIMON HAYTER October 2013 Abstract In the twelfth century the Christian Church experienced a revolution in its religious organisation and many new monastic Orders were founded. The Cistercian Order spread rapidly throughout Europe and when they arrived in Ireland they brought a new style of monasticism, land management and architecture. The Cistercian abbey had an ordered layout arranged around a cloister and their order and commonality was in sharp contrast to the informal arrangement of the earlier Irish monasteries. The Cistercian Order expected that each abbey must be self-sufficient and, wherever possible, be geographically remote. Their self-sufficiency depended on their land- holdings being divided into monastic farms, known as granges, which were managed by Cisterci and worked by agricultural labourers. This scheme of land management had been pioneered on the Continent but it was new to Ireland and the socio-economic impact on medieval Ireland was significant. Today the surviving Cistercian abbeys are attractive ruins but beyond the abbey complex and within the wider environment they are nearly invisible. Medieval monastic archaeology in Ireland, which in modern terms began in the 1950s, concentrated almost exclusively on the abbey complex. The dispersed monastic land-holdings, grange complexes and settlement patterns have been almost totally ignored. This report discusses the archaeological record produced through excavations of Cistercian sites, combined

    Email: [email protected] Phone: 053 9259821 Email: [email protected] Phone: 053 9421374 Dear Service Provider “Progressing Disability Services for Children and Young People is a National directive whose aim is to provide one clear pathway to services for all children and young people with a disability, focusing on the needs of the child/young person and their family”. As part of this directive the HSE formed a Local Implementation Group comprising of HSE personnel involved in the delivery of Paediatric Services. Parent, Department of Education and Section 39 Voluntary agency representatives will also become involved in this process as we move forward. While reviewing current service provision it became apparent that there was a lack of awareness of all the support services that are available for children and their parents in the Wexford area. In order to address this deficit we have put together the attached directory of local supports both Voluntary and HSE run in County Wexford. This directory includes: Parenting Programmes Advocacy Groups Mother and Toddler Groups National Disability Organisations This list while comprehensive is not an exhaustive therefore we would appreciate it if you could inform us of any new developments or groups which may not have been included. We would be grateful if you could distribute this directory to any group or parent whom you feel would benefit from the information.

  • Pikeman-Athlete-Race-Guide-2019
    Athlete Race Brief 2019 1. Welcome from Wexford Triathlon Club Welcome to the Pikeman Rosslare Triathlon 2019. I hope you have a safe and enjoyable race. The 2018 re-launch of this Standard distance triathlon was a great success, thanks to our competitors, marshals, volunteers, sponsors, and of course the fantastic weather delivered to us for the day. With the 2019 race running a few weeks earlier this year, due to Ironman Youghal, we still expect good weather, and the good news is the sea is warming up nicely. In fact, this is a perfect prep race for Youghal given the sea swim. I would like to thank lots of people that make this race possible. Firstly, you the competitors, for putting The Pikeman in your race calendar, also, Wexford County Council, Triathlon Ireland, our Sponsors, the RNLI, Order of Malta, Irish Coast Guard, Local Kayak and motor boat providers, Wexford Garda, Rosslare Development Association, and of course our own committee members who provide the food, and put themselves forward for marshal duty on the day. Our ambition is to build the Pikeman to become a premier event on the Triathlon Ireland calendar, eventually having the race featured in the National Series. The Pikeman is a race that could give you a PB, due to its flat terrain, and it can also be a course that can be your first standard distance race, due to the fact it is a non technical course. I look forward to seeing everyone on the day, and wish you a fun, safe and great race.
