  • The Castlecomer Plateau
    23 The Castlecomer plateau By T. P. Lyng, N.T. HE Castlecomer Plateau is the tableland that is the watershed between the rivers Nore and Barrow. Owing T to the erosion of carboniferous deposits by the Nore and Barrow the Castlecomer highland coincides with the Castle­ comer or Leinster Coalfield. Down through the ages this highland has been variously known as Gower Laighean (Gabhair Laighean), Slieve Margy (Sliabh mBairrche), Slieve Comer (Sliabh Crumair). Most of it was included within the ancient cantred of Odogh (Ui Duach) later called Ui Broanain. The Normans attempted to convert this cantred into a barony called Bargy from the old tribal name Ui Bairrche. It was, however, difficult territory and the Barony of Bargy never became a reality. The English labelled it the Barony of Odogh but this highland territory continued to be march lands. Such lands were officially termed “ Fasach ” at the close of the 15th century and so the greater part of the Castle­ comer Plateau became known as the Barony of Fassadinan i.e. Fasach Deighnin, which is translated the “ wi lderness of the river Dinan ” but which officially meant “ the march land of the Dinan.” This no-man’s land that surrounds and hedges in the basin of the Dinan has always been a boundary land. To-day it is the boundary land between counties Kil­ kenny, Carlow and Laois and between the dioceses of Ossory, Kildare and Leighlin. The Plateau is divided in half by the Dinan-Deen river which flows South-West from Wolfhill to Ardaloo. The rim of the Plateau is a chain of hills averag­ ing 1,000 ft.

However, there is an absence of a continuous pedestrian linkage between the two villages. Presently there are footpaths extending south from Knocktopher and north from Ballyhale. These footpaths were constructed over a number of phases with the most recent in 2010. There is a gap of approximately 858m between the extremities of both these footpaths.

  • The War of Independence in County Kilkenny: Conflict, Politics and People
    The War of Independence in County Kilkenny: Conflict, Politics and People Eoin Swithin Walsh B.A. University College Dublin College of Arts and Celtic Studies This dissertation is submitted in part fulfilment of the Master of Arts in History July 2015 Head of School: Dr Tadhg Ó hAnnracháin Supervisor of Research: Professor Diarmaid Ferriter P a g e | 2 Abstract The array of publications relating to the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921) has, generally speaking, neglected the contributions of less active counties. As a consequence, the histories of these counties regarding this important period have sometimes been forgotten. With the recent introduction of new source material, it is now an opportune time to explore the contributions of the less active counties, to present a more layered view of this important period of Irish history. County Kilkenny is one such example of these overlooked counties, a circumstance this dissertation seeks to rectify. To gain a sense of the contemporary perspective, the first two decades of the twentieth century in Kilkenny will be investigated. Significant events that occurred in the county during the period, including the Royal Visit of 1904 and the 1917 Kilkenny City By-Election, will be examined. Kilkenny’s IRA Military campaign during the War of Independence will be inspected in detail, highlighting the major confrontations with Crown Forces, while also appraising the corresponding successes and failures throughout the county. The Kilkenny Republican efforts to instigate a ‘counter-state’ to subvert British Government authority will be analysed. In the political sphere, this will focus on the role of Local Government, while the administration of the Republican Courts and the Republican Police Force will also be examined.

  • Urban Design Study for Knocktopher
    Urban Design Study for Knocktopher Overview Knocktopher is a historic settlement, containing the remains of ancient and medieval building forms, including ringforts, the sites of at least three castles (the most notable of which is the Garrison Castle), the remains of a Carmelite Convent (founded and endowed by James, 2nd Earl of Ormond, in 1356), includ- ing the distinctive Church tower in ruins, and the magnificent 1 Knocktopher Abbey. Photo 1: View of Church of Ireland on entering the village on the Callan Road— Areas of Notable Character note landscaped verge on right. The structure and form of Knocktopher village, as it appears today, consists of a somewhat fragmented or dispersed form, with a number of distinctive townscape elements. These could be best described as 'character areas' - of which there are four notable ones - each separated by an intervening area of unde- veloped agricultural lands. These can be loosely described as follows: 1. Village Centre and Vicinity The first of these would be in the vicinity of the Church of Ireland Church and the intersection of the N9 and the Callan Road (R699)/Graigenamanagh Road. This is the commercial heart of the village, which includes the service station, Car- roll's Hotel, a pub and local retail store. It is typified by a tight urban form and near continuous building lines, though is ad- joined on the perimeter by freestanding 2 buildings and bungalows. 2. Knocktopher Abbey and Vicinity Photo 2: Village Centre. The second area is focused at Knocktopher Abbey and its im- mediate vicinity, including the old graveyard with the medie- val Church Tower, the Catholic Church and the former site of the Garrison Castle.

B E F O R E Eoin McDermott – FSCSI, FRICS, ACI Arb Deputy Chairperson Fergus Keogh – MSCSI, MRICS Member Úna Ní Chatháin - BL Member JUDGMENT OF THE VALUATION TRIBUNAL ISSUED ON THE 9TH DAY OF JUNE, 2020. 1. THE APPEAL 1.1 By Notice of Appeal received on the 13th day of October, 2017 the Appellant appealed against the determination of the Respondent pursuant to which the net annual value ‘(the NAV’) of the above relevant Property was fixed in the sum of €6,540. 1.2 The sole ground of appeal as set out in the Notice of Appeal is that the determination of the valuation of the Property is not a determination that accords with that required to be achieved by section 19 (5) of the Act because : “Rentable value is incorrect, also square footage is incorrect.” 1 1.3 The Appellant considers that the valuation of the Property ought to have been determined in a sum between €350 and €550. 2. REVALUATION HISTORY 2.1 On the 11th day of May, 2017 a copy of a Valuation certificate proposed to be issued under section 24(1) of the Valuation Act 2001 (“the Act”) in relation to the Property was sent to the Appellant indicating a valuation of €6,450. 2.2 Being dissatisfied with the valuation proposed, representations were made to the valuation manager in relation to the valuation.
