  • List of Irish Mountain Passes
    List of Irish Mountain Passes The following document is a list of mountain passes and similar features extracted from the gazetteer, Irish Landscape Names. Please consult the full document (also available at Mountain Views) for the abbreviations of sources, symbols and conventions adopted. The list was compiled during the month of June 2020 and comprises more than eighty Irish passes and cols, including both vehicular passes and pedestrian saddles. There were thousands of features that could have been included, but since I intended this as part of a gazetteer of place-names in the Irish mountain landscape, I had to be selective and decided to focus on those which have names and are of importance to walkers, either as a starting point for a route or as a way of accessing summits. Some heights are approximate due to the lack of a spot height on maps. Certain features have not been categorised as passes, such as Barnesmore Gap, Doo Lough Pass and Ballaghaneary because they did not fulfil geographical criteria for various reasons which are explained under the entry for the individual feature. They have, however, been included in the list as important features in the mountain landscape.

  • The Archaeological Heritage of Co. Cork Supported by the Heritage Council
    The Archaeological Heritage of Co. Cork supported by The Heritage Council The Archaeological Heritage of County Cork is going to be the 8th addition to the Heritage of County Cork Publication Series. It is hoped that this book will be published along with The Colourful Heritage of County Cork come November of this year. The following document gives you an insight into the types of various different sites which are currently being considered for inclusion in the upcoming publication. A brief description accompanies the majority of the included photographs to give an idea of the history associated with the site itself. From stone circles to forts, holy wells and standing stones, our County really has an abundance of heritage on offer! Drombeg Stone Circle Drombeg Stone Circle is located c. 2.3km east of Glandore village and is surrounded by a green field filled landscape. The site not only contains a stone circle but also consists of a hut site and fulacht fia. The stone circle itself was excavated in the 1900’s, when five pits were discovered beneath the ground, one of which contained some human bone remains, shale fragments and shards of coarse fabric pots. A horseshoe shaped dry stone enclosing bank, a slab-lined cooking pit, a u-shaped hearth and a well with an associated overflow drainage channel were some of the other features exposed following the excavation of the site.

  • Múscraí Gaeltacht Conservation, Management and Interpretation Plan
    MÚSCRAÍ GAELTACHT CONSERVATION, MANAGEMENT AND INTERPRETATION PLAN PREPARED: DECEMBER, 2014 CLIENT: CORK COUNTY COUNCIL AND ACADAMH FÓDHLA RESEARCH + DIG Conservation/Heritage/Archaeology 1 Contents page 1.0 Introduction 3 2.0 Historical and archaeological profile 7 3.0 The natural heritage of the Múscraí Gaeltacht 17 4.0 Intangible heritage 26 5.0 Assessment of significance 37 2 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Background This Conservation Management and Interpretation Plan was commissioned by Cork County Council in conjunction with Acadamh Fódhla. The main aim of the project is to highlight the importance and heritage significance of the Múscraí Gaeltacht and to devise a number of heritage objectives and actions to ensure that the area is appropriately conserved, managed and maintained into the future. The word ‘Gaeltacht’ is used for areas where the Irish language is, or was until the recent past, the main spoken language. Gaeltacht areas are defined by Government order. One of them is Múscraí. 1.2 Site Identification and Profile Lying along the Cork / Kerry border, the Múscraí Gaeltacht is located 48kms to the west of Cork City (fig 1). Its population of 3,895 (CSO, 2011), represents 4% of the total number of Gaeltacht inhabitants. The Cork Gaeltacht encompasses a geographical area of 262km2. This amounts to 6% of the total Gaeltacht area. The largest settlements are the villages of Baile Mhic Íre/Baile Bhuirne and Béal Átha an Ghaorthaidh. Other significant settlements include Cúil Aodha, Réidh na nDoirí, and Cill na Martra. The landscape is dominated by numerous high craggy hills and the Derrynasaggart Mountains.

FOREWORD The untimely death of Professor Ruaidhri de Valera, on the 28th October 1978, brought to an end a fruitful association with the Ordnance Survey which had lasted for more than three decades. He was appointed Placenames Officer in the Ordnance Survey in February 1946, became Archaeology Officer the following year and served in the dual roles of Archaeology Officer and Senior Placenames Officer until he took up his appointment to the Chair of Celtic Archaeology in University College, Dublin in November 1957. Thereafter his connection with the Ordnance Survey was maintained through his constant collaboration in the production of this Survey of the Megalithic Tombs of Ireland. Ruaidhri de Valera's Celtic Studies training together with his love and understanding of the language and culture of Ireland fitted him well for the appointments he held at the Ordnance Survey and enabled him to revive and foster the traditions of scholarship established by his famous predecessors, O'Donovan, O'Curry and Petrie. Throughout his time here he was involved in research on Placenames and when the personnel of An Coimisiun Logainmneacha were attached to this Office it was under his guidance that the work was re-organised and set on its present successful course.
