In 1972 that’s all Tony and Maureen Wheeler needed for the trip of a lifetime – across Europe and Asia overland to Australia. It took several months, and at the end – broke but inspired – they sat at their kitchen table writing and stapling together their first travel guide, Across Asia on the Cheap. Within a week they’d sold 1500 copies. Lonely Planet was born. Today, Lonely Planet has offices in Franklin, London, Melbourne, Oakland, Dublin, Beijing and Delhi, with more than 600 staff and writers. We share Tony’s belief that ‘a great guidebook should do three things: inform, educate and amuse’. 124 ©Lonely Planet Publications Pty Ltd INDEX Lackan Strand 85 St Mary’s Church 38-9 A Lacken Strand 30 Claddagh rings 62 abbeys Omey Strand 40 Clare 43-9, 92-107 Ballintubber Abbey 87 Spanish Point 20 Clarke, Harry 38 Cong Abbey 38, 76 Trawmore Beach 82-3 Cliffs of Moher 9, 46, 100-1 Kylemore Abbey 73 bicycling, see cycling climate 22 Rosserk Abbey 86 birdwatching 32, 101 Cong 38, 76-8 Sligo Abbey 88 boat travel 114 Connemara 9, 71-3 accessible travel 120-1 boat trips 76, 79, 91, 101 Connemara National Park 40 accommodation 23, 114, 115-16 border crossings 112 cooking classes 61 Achill Island 29, 81-5, 82 Boycott, Captain Charles costs 23, 116, 117 air travel 114 Cunningham 38 County Clare 43-9, 92-107 Aran Islands 24-5, 45-6, 48, budget 23, 116, 117 County Galway 52-75 64-71 Burren, the 101-2 County Mayo 27-32, 76-88 archaeological sites, see business hours 119 County Sligo 27-32, 88-91 historic sites & ruins credit cards 118 area codes 120 C currency 22 ATMs 100, 118, 120 car travel, see driving Cushlough Bay 39 Aughris Head 31-2 Castlebar 87-8 cycling castles, see forts & castles Achill Island 83 B cathedrals, see churches & Ennis 92-3 Ballina 30-1, 86-7 cathedrals Sligo Town 88 Ballinrobe 38-9 caves 38, 102-3, 107 Westport 78 Ballycastle 85 Céide Fields 85 Ballycroy National Park 29-30 cell phones 23, 120 D Ballyvaughan 45, 107 children, travel with 29 Delphi 40, 78 bathhouses 31, 32 churches & cathedrals disabilities, travellers with beaches Church of the Holy Mary 120-1 Achill Island 29, 83 of the Immaculate dolphin watching 31, 48, Easkey 31 Conception 68 96, 97-8 Enniscrone 31 Collegiate Church of St Doolin 24, 102-5 Nicholas of Myra 75 Keem Bay Beach 81 Dooney Rock 91 Ennis Cathedral 92 Downpatrick Head 85 Ennis Friary 92 000 Map pages driving 22, 109-13 Galway Cathedral 53 125 Dun Aengus 24, 64-5 Belleek Castle 86 Ballycroy National Park 30 Dun Briste 85 Doonagore Castle 103 Burren, the 101-2 DVDs 119 Dun Aengus 24, 64-5 Cliffs of Moher 100 Dún Chonchúir 67 Connemara National E Dún Dúchathair 65 Park 73 Doolin Cliff Walk 103 Easkey 31 Dún Eochla 66 Galway 55 electricity 116 Dún Fearbhaigh 67 Inishbofin 72 emergencies 22, 113 Grace O’Malley’s Castle 82 Inisheer 71 INDEX Leamaneh Castle 106-7 Ennis 18-20, 44-5, 92-5, 94 Lackan Bay 86 Enniscrone 31 Lynch’s Castle 75 E-K Loop Head 97 Ennistimon 20-1, 46, 95, O’Brien’s Castle 46 99-100 Parke’s Castle 91 Sligo Town 88 etiquette 118 fuel 22, 111-12 Westport 78 events, see festivals & events historic sites & ruins, see also forts & castles exchange rates 118-19 G Burren, the 101 galleries, see museums & Céide Fields 85 galleries F Easkey 31 Galway (County) 52-75 Father Ted 46, 66, 69, 106 Ennis 45 Galway City 9, 10-11, 18, 36, ferry travel 114 Hall of the Red Earl 53, 74 52-64, 54-5 festivals & events accommodation 11, 56-8 Inchagoill 36-7 arts & culture 40, 55, 66, drinking & nightlife 61-2 Na Seacht dTeampaill 66 84, 89 Spanish Arch 53, 74 Father Ted 66, 106 entertainment 62 festivals & events 55-6 St Mary’s Well 85-6 film 55 Teampall Chiaráin 66 food 30-1, 55, 56 food 10, 58-61 history 52 Wall of Enda 69 LGBTQI+ 56 holidays 119-20 literature 55, 89 shopping 62-3 sights 52-3, 74-5 horse racing 55-6 matchmaking 105 horse riding 72, 79, 84 music 20, 25, 84, 89, 93, 103 tourist information 63 tours 53-5 sports 55-6 I fishing 30-1,

  • Ennis Cathedral
    Ennis Cathedral: The Building & Its People. Saturday 29th. August 2009 Presented by the Clare Roots Society Clare Roots Society The Clare Roots Society, brainchild of Ennisman Larry Brennan, was formed in April 2006 as an amateur family history group. The Society meets once a month in Ennis, and has approx. 50 members. Anyone with an interest in tracing their family tree is welcome to join. Some members are experienced genealogists while others are novices in the field. In addition to local members, we have some 'virtual' members who live overseas, but who follow our activities via email, and dream that they are in Clare. Activities are advertised in local press and in the Ennis Cathedral church bulletin. Under the Chairmanship of Declan Barron and his committee of Fiona de Buitleir, Eric Shaw, Larry Brennan & Paddy Waldron, guest speakers were arranged at past meetings including Paul O’Donnell of the South Galway genealogy group, Peter Beirne of 'The Manse' Local Studies library in Ennis, Jim Herlihy on the RIC, Liam Curran on Irish Soldiers in the British Army, Jonny Dillon of the Folklore Dept., UCD, and Dr. Pat Nugent of the University of Liverpool amongst others. From our own members, speakers have included Dr. Paddy Waldron, Gerry Kennedy, Ger Madden, Declan Barron, Eric Shaw, Robert Cullen, and Larry Brennan. In addition, we have run a number of hands-on computer workshops on genealogical research and the recording of data. The society works in partnership with Clare County Library in order to add to the wonderful fund of genealogy information already available on their website www.clarelibrary.ie Our biggest project to date, completed in 2008 with the assistance of a grant from the Heritage Council of Ireland, involved transcription of the gravestones in the old Drumcliffe Cemetery.

  • National Gallery of Ireland Annual Report 2015
    National Gallery of Ireland Annual Report 2015 National Gallery of Ireland The National Gallery of Ireland was founded by an Act of Parliament in 1854 and opened to the public in 1864. It is home to over 16,300 works of art, complemented by the National Portrait Collection, as well as research facilities dedicated to the study of Irish art. The collection ranges in date from the fourteenth century to the present day comprising paintings, sculpture and works on paper spanning the history of Western European art, from Renaissance masters Fra Angelico and Paolo Uccello to Claude Monet and Pablo Picasso. The Gallery’s most prominent holdings relate to the Irish collection with works by Nathaniel Hone, Thomas Roberts, Daniel Maclise, Roderic O’Conor, William Orpen, John Lavery, Louis le Brocquy, among others. Particularly popular are the works of William Leech, Paul Henry and Jack B. Yeats, whose extensive archive is housed at the Gallery. More recently the Gallery has significantly enhanced its research facilities with the opening of the Sir Denis Mahon Reading Room. The permanent collection is free to the public and the Gallery welcomes large numbers of Irish and overseas visitors each year. Four wings of the Gallery, built between 1864 and 2002, accommodate a growing collection. As part of the Master Development Plan (MDP) a major refurbishment project of the Dargan and Milltown wings on Merrion Square is currently underway and scheduled to reopen with a new presentation of the collection in 2017. An additional wing to the Gallery is planned for the coming years. This final phase will conclude a decade-long process of essential improvement and modernisation of the National Gallery of Ireland for staff and visitors alike.

    ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF THE PROPOSED SLIGO CITY CENTRE PUBLIC REALM SCHEME, COUNTY SLIGO ON BEHALF OF: SLIGO COUNTY COUNCIL AUTHOR: ROSS WATERS NOVEMBER 2020 IAC PROJECT REF.: J3613 DOCUMENT CONTROL SHEET DATE DOCUMENT TITLE REV. PREPARED BY REVIEWED BY APPROVED BY Archaeological Assessment of the 25.11.20 proposed Sligo City Centre Public Realm 0 Ross Waters Faith Bailey Faith Bailey Scheme, Co. Sligo Sligo City Centre Public Realm, Archaeological Assessment Co. Sligo ABSTRACT This report has been prepared on behalf of Sligo County Council, to study the impact, if any, on the archaeological and historical resource of a proposed urban realm improvement scheme at Stephen Street, Holborn Street, Rockwood Parade, Hyde Bridge, Water Lane and Tobergal Lane in Sligo City Centre (ITM 569216/836001). The assessment has been carried out by Ross Waters of IAC Archaeology. The proposed scheme is situated within the zone of archaeological potential for the historic town of Sligo, which is a recorded monument (SL014-065) and there are a further 18 recorded monuments and two archaeological sites within the study area. A substantial number of these relate to archaeological objects that are now housed in a museum and as such they do not represent in-situ archaeological remains. Previous archaeological work within the proposed scheme and its immediate environs identified evidence of occupation, reclamation and industry dating to the post- medieval period. Whilst it is clear that the proposed scheme footprint has been subject to development and disturbance during the post-medieval and modern periods, it is not clear how this disturbance may have affected the archaeological resource.
