The silt build-up was removed utilising a grab dredger and associated dump barge. The dredge materi al was disposed of at an adjacent deep-water dumpsite.

Kerry. 1.4 ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL BACKGROUND 1.4.1 Introduction Tarbert is the name given to an island and town in the parish of Kilnaughton, barony of Iraghticonnor, county of Kerry (Lewis 1837, 596). The town is situated on a steep slope overlooking the river Shannon, about 35 miles below Limerick, and to the south of Tarbert Island, which is connected by a causeway to the main headland (Room 1986, 118). The name Tarbert indicates a narrow neck of land or isthmus (Joyce 1902, III, 567) where boats I and their contents can be carried across. On the southern shore of the lower Shannon estuary between Tarbert and Foynes the estuary is at its narrowest, being c. 1.25 km wide (O'Sullivan 2001 , 40). The tidal limit of the Shannon estuary is above Limerick City, which is 96 km from the open ocean. The deepest part of the estuary is at its mouth, although relatively deep water also exists in the constricted Tarbert Race, where the tidal flows are greatest. The upper estuary, east of the Tarbert Race, is generally shallower, with extensive mudflats (see O'Sullivan 2001). Maximum tidal velocities occur in the narrowest part of the estuary at Tarbert Race, reaching 2.5m S-1 north-east of Tarbert Island (Nairn et al. 1997) (48) . 1.4.2 Maritime Activity The Bay of Tarbert extends between the town and the island of the same name and is formed by a deep bight terminated by a small river flowing into it near the town , and is sheltered on the north-west side by the Island. In the past it was an important location for shipping as it was capable of affording 'a safe and commodious roadstead for about 150 vessels of the For inspection purposes only. largest class' and was consideredConsent an of copyright'asylum owner harbour required for' (Lewis any other use.1837). This 'roadstead' enabled ships to anchor south-east of the island, sheltered from westerly and south-westerly winds. The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries saw an intensification of maritime activity around the Shannon estuary and harbours such as Tarbert were developed (Henry 1996, 141; Breen and Callaghan 2001 , 239). A pier was built on the south-east side of Tarbert Island during the course of the 1830s, at a pOint recommended by Captain Mudge in his report to the Board of Public Works (Lewis 1837, 597). The City of Dublin Steam Packet Company leased a section of the shore at Tarbert and built a stone pier and wharf in the nineteenth century (National Archive file OPW 8/-347, Piers and Harbours). These facilities helped Tarbert consolidate its position as the main ferry point across the estuary and the town became the principal landing­ place for passengers from Dublin and Limerick to Tralee and the Lakes of Killarney. The Steam Navigation Company also built a road along the shore of the bay, from the town to the island, for the convenience of their passengers. There was at this time no nearer point of embarkation than the inner side of the island. By 1880 there was a further pier at Tarbert Boland Archaeoloaical Services Ltd.: BAS 01 -01 -03 Page-8 EPA Export 26-07-2013:23:59:45 Archaeological Assessment, Dredging and Dumping Development, Tarbert Power Plant, River Shannon Estuary, Co. Kerry. (Breen and Callaghan 2001 , 238). This pier belonged to the Shannon Commissioners. However, siltation in the harbour was a growing problem (Anon. 1880, 10). Tarbert was the main Kerry port in the estuary throughout the post-medieval period (Breen and Callaghan 2001) and is clearly depicted on John Speed's map of Ireland, published in his Theatre of the empire of Great Britain in 1612 (O'Sullivan, A. 2001, 19). In the nineteenth century the town had an export trade in corn, butter, pigs, and other agricultural produce raised in the surrounding district (Lewis 1837). About 50,000 barrels of grain, and 25,000 I pigs, were annually exported, and the export of butter during the season averaged about 200 firkins per month (Lewis 1837). These products were chiefly sent to Limerick, with which city and the town of Kilrush it had a communication, in summer daily, and in winter on alternate days, by the vessels of the Inland Steam Navigation Company.

For billiard-tables there is nothing like slate, so perfectly level and smooth as it is. Then, fishmongers found there was nothing like slate for their slab (till they are rich enough to afford marble); and farmers’ wives discovered the same thing in regard to their dairies. Plumbers then began to declare that there was nothing like slate for cisterns and sinks; and builders, noticing this, tried slate for the pavement of wash-houses, pantries, and kitchens, and for cottage floors; and they have long declared that there is nothing like it; it is so clean, and dries so quickly. If so, thought the ornamental gardener, it must be the very thing for garden chairs, summer-houses, sun-dials, and tables in arbors; and it is the very thing. The stone mason was equally pleased with it for gravestones.

  • The Kerry Way Self Guided | Free Download
    The Kerry Way: Self-Guided How to plan your multi-day backpacking trip around Ireland’s scenic Ring of Kerry Many are familiar with the beautiful Ring of Kerry in County Kerry, Ireland, but far fewer are aware that the entire route can be walked instead of driven. Despite The Kerry Way’s status as one of the most popular of Ireland’s National Waymarked Trails, I had more difficulty finding advice to help me prepare for it than I did for hikes in Scotland and the United Kingdom. At approximately 135 miles, it’s also the longest of Ireland’s trails, and in retrospect I’ve noticed that many companies who offer self-guided itineraries actually cut off two whole sections of the route - in my opinion, some of the prettiest sections. In honor of completing my own trek with nothing but online articles and digital apps to guide the way, I thought I’d pay it forward by creating my own budget-minded backpacker’s guide (for the WHOLE route) so that others might benefit from what I learned. If you prefer to stay in B&Bs rather than camping or budget accommodations, I’ve outlined how you can swap out some of my choices for your own.

It was not, until early 19l7, that the Volunteers were reorganised at Learn, Lixnaw.
