  • Robb Report Luggala
    Journeys: Artists' Residence April 01, 2006 The Mercedes has bottomed out. More speed might have propelled the vehicle over the hill on this rolling Irish cart road, but the undercarriage now sits squarely on top of a grassy protuberance, while the wheels spin frantically in the air. The driver, Garech Browne, squire of the land, member of the Guinness family, writer, champion and guardian of Irish lore and poetry, founder of Claddagh Records, and friend and host to Bono and Nelson Mandela, is completely nonplussed as he exits the vehicle to survey the situation. A dandy of note, the 66-year-old Browne is dressed in a perfectly fitted beige three-piece wool suit. His ponytail and long white beard remain untussled in the stiff wind of this gray October morning in County Wicklow. Top photo: The home of a record company founder, Luggala is furnished with a variety of musical instruments, including Bottom photo: this Irish harp. Bottom photograph by Alen Macweeney. (Click images to enlarge) While Browne assesses the damage, I take in the view of the landscape from my perch upon the car’s boot. Some 20,000 years ago, the glaciers slid through here and carved out a broad valley that runs from north to south. The steep granite cliffs of a mountain called the Fancy rise to the west of our location in the valley. It takes its name from the Irish word foinse, which means source, a reference to the beginning of the river Cloghoge, whose waters run through the valley. The river feeds into Lough Tay, which, according to legend, is bottomless, its depths reaching to the kingdom of the leprechauns.

  • 2016 – 2022 Record of Protected Structures
    COUNTY Record of Protected Structures 2016 – 2022 WICKLOW COUNTY DEVELOPMENT PLAN Comhairle Contae Chill Mhantáin DECEMBER 2016 Wicklow County Council - Record of Protected Structures Each development plan must include policy objectives to protect structures or parts of structures of special interest within its functional area under Section 10 of the Planning and Development Act, 2000. The primary means of achieving this objective is for the planning authority to compile and maintain a record of protected structures to be included in the development plan. A planning authority is obliged to include in the Record of Protected Structures every structure which, in its opinion, is of special architectural, historical, archaeological, artistic, cultural, scientific, social or technical interest. A ‘protected structure’ is defined as any structure or specified part of a structure, which is included in the Record of Protected Structures. A structure is defined by the Planning and Development Act, 2000 as ‘any building, structure, excavation, or other thing constructed or made on, in or under any land, or any part of a structure’. In relation to a protected structure, the meaning of the term ‘structure’ is expanded to include: (a) the interior of the structure; (b) the land lying within the curtilage of the structure; (c) any other structures lying within that curtilage and their interiors, and (d) all fixtures and features which form part of the interior or exterior of the above structures. Where indicated in the Record of Protected Structures, protection may also include any specified feature within the attendant grounds of the structure which would not otherwise be included.

  • A GUIDE to SEA ANGLING in the EASTERN FISHERIES REGION by Norman Dunlop
    A GUIDE TO SEA ANGLING IN THE EASTERN FISHERIES REGION by Norman Dunlop Published by; the Eastern Regional Fisheries Board, 15A, Main Street, Blackrock, Co. Dublin. © Copyright reserved. No part of the text, maps or diagrams may be used or copied without the permission of the Eastern Regional Fisheries Board. 2009 Foreword I am delighted to welcome you to the Board’s new publication on sea fishing Ireland’s east and south east coast. Sea angling is available along the entire coastline from Dundalk in County Louth to Ballyteigue Bay in County Wexford. You will find many fantastic venues and a multitude of species throughout the region. Whether fishing from the shore or from a licenced charter boat there is terrific sport to be had, and small boat operators will find many suitable slipways for their vessels. At venues such as Cahore in Co. Wexford small boat anglers battle with fast running Tope, Smoothhound, and Ray. Kilmore Quay in South Wexford is a centre of excellence for angling boasting all types of fishing for the angler. There is a great selection of chartered boats and the facilities for small boat fishing are second to none. Anglers can go reef fishing for Pollack, Wrasse, Cod, and Ling. From springtime onwards at various venues shore anglers lure, fly, and bait fish for the hard fighting Bass, while specialist anglers target summer Mullet and winter Flounder. In recent years black bream have been turning up in good numbers in the Wexford area and this species has recently been added to the Irish specimen fish listing.
