  • The Maritime Heritage of Waterford Estuary
    The Maritime Heritage of Waterford Estuary An Overview of Heritage Features & Opportunities Naomi S. Foley APRIL 2021 The Maritime Heritage of Waterford Estuary The Maritime Heritage of Waterford Estuary 2 An Overview of Heritage Features & Opportunities An Overview of Heritage Features & Opportunities The Maritime Heritage of Waterford Estuary The Maritime Heritage of Waterford Estuary Foreword For centuries rivers have been the motorways of the world. Waterford’s geographical position has meant that the harbour has been one of the main gateways to Ireland for people and ideas since prehistoric times. Some of the first people to settle in Ireland came through Waterford Estuary and evidence of their activities has been discovered by archaeologists at places like Creadan Head and along the banks of the River Suir. Indeed, there is evidence of early settlements all along the shores of Waterford Harbour. It was the Vikings who established the port town here in 914, calling it Vedrarfjordr (haven from the windy seas) which over time changed to Waterford. The city’s strategic importance is well illustrated by its part in the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland and especially when Henry II sailed into Waterford Harbour in 1171 making Waterford a royal city. Following the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland, William Marshal built a lighthouse on Hook Head in the 1200s and this is now the oldest working lighthouse in the world. By the 1200s the port city of Waterford was a wealthy and sophisticated place. Exports included wool, hides, wheat, oats, malt and salted fish and imports included salt and luxury goods such as wine, figs, dates and silk.

Throughout the year there was a strong team focus on the organisational values of Professionalism, Quality, Trust, Respect, Innovation and Collaboration. Health and Safety is a critical aspect of our work and I want to thank all employees for their continued focus on and prioritisation of safe working. Looking back over the past twelve months, I want to share some of the successes of the team and the impacts achieved. During 2019, we welcomed new Commissioners and new employees to Irish Lights and acknowledged the significant contribution of a number of retiring and long serving colleagues. From the 1st of April 2019 a new organisational structure was implemented which incorporated the establishment of the new eNavigation and Maritime Services Department to align our structure better to the delivery of our new strategy.

Hook Rural Tourism Limited is a community-based organisation on the Hook Peninsula in south-west County Wexford. The organisation has been in existence for over 50 years and is a not-for-profit enterprise. Among the very many different aspects of its work, it promotes the Hook Peninsula as a tourist destination in a manner that protects the area’s unspoiled coastal landscape and significant heritage resource values. 2. The project area, that is, the location ‘the Hook Peninsula’ as promoted by Hook Rural Tourism Limited, is shown below (Figure 1). On its northern side the area extends to the town of New Ross. On its eastern side it includes the village of Wellingtonbridge and the Keeragh Islands. To the south and west the area is bounded by the Celtic Sea, Waterford Harbour estuary, and the River Barrow that flows through New Ross. The distance by road from Hook Head to New Ross is nearly 40km and the extent of the project area is 400km2 approximately. All of the project area used to be in the New Ross Municipal District but since the 2018 revision of electoral areas, the eastern edge of the project area is now in the Rosslare Municipal District.
