Chapter 11 Clarecastle – Port & Fishing
Chapter 11 Clarecastle – Port & Fishing The Port of Clare, Clarecastle Port Shipping Records,Clarecastle Quay,a Clarecastle Sailing Ship Eric Shaw Fishing on the Fergus Boland’s Rock Fish-traps – located about five miles down-river from Clarecastle. photograph taken by Eric Shaw As long as the River Fergus has flowed through the parish and that people have populated its banks, the river has been a source of transport and a source of food in the form of fish. In 2004, a uniquely well-preserved complex of medieval fish-traps at Boland’s Rock* was investigated by a team from Galway University. Local fishermen had been aware of these traps that became visible at low tide but this was the first time that the wooden traps were scientifically examined. Radiocarbon dating of the timber used in the traps showed that they dated back to the late 11th to late 12th century AD. These traps may have been set by Augustian monks from Clare Abbey and Canon Island to provide food for the large number of monks and students that are linked to the abbeys. *shown on maps as Boorland’s Rocks but known locally as Boland’s Rock Net-fishing on the Fergus The boat used by the Clarecastle net-fishermen for many years was known as a gandalow, a boat design used in the Fergus and Shannon Estuaries. The drawing above of the Quay shows a gandalow on the river. The boat is keelless and with the spring in the floor, it is ideal to manoeuvre in shallow water or over the mud flats. -

Eric’s article on the Great War in the book ‘Clarecastle and Ballyea - Land and People 2’ was an invaluable source of information. Eric also has been a great help to me over the past five years, with priceless information on Clare in WW1 and WW2. If that was not enough, Dr Joe Power, another historian from Clarecastle published his excellent book ‘Clare and the Great War’ in 2015.

Introduction 1.0 Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme
CRU/19/091 Irish Water Revenue Control - Revenue Control 3 (2020-2024) Closing Date 11th September 2019 Submission from Clare County Council Introduction Clare County Council welcomes this opportunity to comment on the document in particular under the following headings. 1. Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme. 1.1 Discharge licensing. 1.2 Rural Water Programme. 1.3 Development Plan. 2. Developer Provided Infrastructure (DPI). 3. Capital Programme Irish Water Investment Plan 2020 to 2024. 4. Recommendations. 1.0 Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme For County Clare the issue of un-sewered towns and villages is of great concern. It is preventing housing developments, commercial interest and growth of communities in rural villages and towns which is having a negative social and economic impact and leading to further depopulation in these settlements. Under Irish Water’s “Investment Plan 2020-2024 for CRU Review Appendix 2B-Stakeholder Engagement Feedback from Stage 2 “ (pages 104/105) they have elaborated on their proposals with regard to the Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme. Extract from Appendix 2B-Stakeholder Engagement Feedback. “Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme Feedback from respondents on this theme included the following: Welcome for the clarification provided that the Programme was not restricted to agglomerations above 500 PE; Concern with the response given in the Draft Investment Plan on the use of Rural Regeneration Development Fund of the NDP to provide wastewater capacity in un-sewered villages; Respondents stated their view that the proposed funding allocation methodology, based on the wastewater treatment capacity register for plants above 500 PE, would not be fair to all counties as it doesn’t consider capacity deficits in plants below 500 PE; and 105 | Irish Water | Investment Plan (2020 to 2024) for CRU Determination The importance of balanced regional development and attention to investment requirements in rural towns and villages.
