North Tipperary County Council & South Tipperary County Council. Section 1: Introduction 1.0 Legal Basis of LAP The legal basis for this LAP is provided by the Planning and Development Acts 2000-2002 (Sections 18 and 19). The Act provides for the preparation of Local Area Plans (LAPs) for any part of the functional area of a Planning Authority. A local area plan shall be consistent with the objectives of the County Development Plan. It may include objectives for the zoning of land for the use solely or primarily of particular areas for particular purposes, or such other objectives in such detail as may be determined by the planning authority for the proper planning and sustainable development of the area to which it applies, including detail on community facilities and amenities and on standards of design of developments and structures. This LAP has been prepared by North and South Tipperary County Councils (from here referred to as the Council) and is in accordance with the South Tipperary County Development Plan 2003 and the North Tipperary County Development Plan 2004. The plan was adopted by South Tipperary County Council on the 16th January 2006 and North Tipperary County Council on the 23rd January 2006. It should be noted that legislation does not allow a Local Area Plan to identify new Protected Structures, listed trees and views, Special Areas of Conservation (SAC’s) or Natural Heritage Areas (NHA’s). Reference should be made to the relevant Appendix of each county development plan in this regard as they apply to the LAP area. The following list of Appendices set out in both the South Tipperary County Development Plan 2003 and the North Tipperary County Development Plan 2004 include designations relevant to the LAP: Appendix 3 Protected Structures Appendix 4 Natural Heritage Areas (NHA’a) Special Areas of Conservation (SAC’s) Appendix 5 Protected Trees Appendix 6 Protected Views Appendix 9 Architectural Conservation Areas (Designations in the North Tipperary Draft County Development Plan 2003 are located in a separate Book of Maps) 1.1 Functions and Aims of the LAP The main functions of the LAP are: (i) To examine the pattern and extent of growth in the village and its surrounding hinterland in recent years; (ii) To identify lands for appropriate uses, to provide a policy framework to ensure the sustainable development of the village and its hinterland and to identify objectives for the physical development of Holycross and its hinterland. These policies and objectives shall be implemented over the lifetime of the LAP; (iii) To provide the basis for assessing the detailed planning applications submitted to both planning authorities in such a way that Holycross can encourage and assimilate change, which is essential to the future sustainable development of the village; and, (iv) To ensure the conservation of heritage assets in the village. The aim of the Holycross LAP is to ensure the proper planning and sustainable development of the village. It will therefore facilitate the coordinated social, economic, cultural and environmental development of Holycross and the conservation and enhancement of its natural and built environment. The aim is to develop a plan, which would be agreed and implemented with the concerted effort and mutual co-operation of local people, business, public and private bodies and voluntary organizations. 1.2 Duration of the LAP The duration of this plan will be for a period of 6 years from the date of its adoption i.e. 2006- 2012. 1.3 Village Boundary For the purposes of this LAP, the village of Holycross shall be taken as the area within and bounded by the blue line on Appendix maps. 1 Holycross Local Area Plan 2006. North Tipperary County Council & South Tipperary County Council. 1.4 Previous Plans/Strategies (i) The South Tipperary County Development Plan, 2003: in preparing the Local Area Plan, the Planning Authority has had regard to the policies and objectives set out in the South Tipperary County Development Plan, 2003. (ii) The South Tipperary County Housing Strategy 2001: this sets out current and future housing requirements within the County and the requirement for social and affordable housing. (iii) The North Tipperary County Development Plan 2004: in preparing the Local Area Plan, the Planning Authority has had regard to the policies and objectives set out in the North Tipperary County Development Plan, 2004. (iv) The North Tipperary County Housing Strategy 2001: this sets out current and future housing requirements within the County and the requirement for social and affordable housing. To date the village of Holycross has not had a statutory development plan adopted by the relevant county council. 2 Holycross Local Area Plan 2006. North Tipperary County Council & South Tipperary County Council. Section 2: Holycross in Context 2.0 Location and setting Holycross village is located centrally in County Tipperary and lies on the county borders of North and South Tipperary. The Hollyford hills lie to the west of the area and the flat peat lands of the midlands lie to the north and east. The village straddles the River Suir, and was developed as a religious centre at a fording point in the river. Thurles town lies approximately 5 km to the north east of the village on the regional road R660 and Cashel town lies approximately 13 km to the south. The village is elongated and centered on a junction of the R661 and the R660. 2.1 History, Heritage and Culture Holycross village receives its name from Ceall Uachta Lawyne or ‘the upper church or small church in the territory of Lamund’, a name that attributes to as far back as the 8th century. In 1182 the present ‘Abbey of the relic of the True Cross’ at Holycross was founded on the banks of the River Suir.

  • History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary
    History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary. ‘Introduction’ What better way to begin an account of a Tipperary town than by referring to the following words of a poem called ‘Tipperary‘.In these lines, the poet ‘ Eva of the Nation‘ who was one of the Kellys of Killeen, Portumna,wrote: ‘O come for a while among us,and give us a friendly hand, And you‘ll see that old Tipperary is a loving and gladsome land; From Upper to Lower Ormond bright welcome and smiles will spring, On the plains of Tipperary,the stranger is like a king?‘ Yes, I think the words ring true,I`m sure, for us and about us,natives of this part of Irish soil?? It is about one particular spot ‘on the plains of Tipperary‘ that I wish to write, namely my home parish of Borrisokane?? . So I turn again to verse, which so often suggests things that mere prose cannot? In a book of poetry, ‘The Spirit of Tipperary‘ published many years ago by the Nenagh Guardian,we find a poem by Dermot F ?Gleeson who for many years was District Justice in Nenagh.He wrote under the pen-name ‘Mac Liag‘ . He writes as if from the top of Lisgorrif Hill looking down on the broad expanse of the two Ormonds with Lough Derg bordering them to the left? .The poem is simply called, ‘The place where I was born’ ‘O’er hill and mountain, vale and town, My gaze now wanders up and down, Anon my heart is filled with pride, Anon with memory’s gentler tide ‘ Of sorrow, until through them all The twilight whispers softly call From upland green and golden corn “It is the place where you were born”.

  • The Civil Records by Michael F
    The Civil Records By Michael F. McGraw, Ph.D. [email protected] Introduction The civil registration of Catholic births, marriages and deaths were required beginning in 1864. These records through about 1920 are available on line at https://irishgenealogy.ie The birth and marriage records of the McGrath and Long families in the Thurles and Cashel registration districts were extracted from the civil records. The results are presented in a series of four papers: McGrath in Thurles and Cashel; Long in Thurles and Cashel. Each paper has its own table of contents so that it’s possible to easily navigate these data intense papers. The primary areas of interest are the civil parishes of Upperchurch, Moyaliff and Holycross but it was decided to use a larger net and to transcribe all the McGrath and Long birth and marriage records in both of the above registration districts. The number of families for whom birth and marriage records were extracted from the civil registration database of the Thurles and Cashel districts are shown in the table below. The marriage records with no associated birth records are kept separately while the others are grouped into families with their children’s birth records. Male and female in the table refer to the parents. Thurles Cashel Total McGrath (Male) 46 31 77 McGrath (Female) 26 27 53 Long (Male) 39 20 59 Long (Female) 21 4 25 TOTAL (w/ birth recs) 214 McGrath Marriages 25 27 52 Long Marriages 42 15 57 TOTAL (no birth recs) 109 The McGrath and Long families of most interest to my research resided in an area where three RC parishes came together: Upperchurch & Drombane, Ballycahill & Holycross and Clonoulty.

  • The Upperchurch Families
    The Upperchurch Families Michael F. McGraw [email protected] Revised May 30, 2011 This list was originally circulated several years ago as The Ryans of Central New York . Since that time more families have been found and more connections established. Although Ryan is the most numerous surname the organizing theme has been broadened to cover the Upperchurch area of Co. Tipperary because all of the families on this list come from the Upperchurch area, with one exception. They arrived over an extended period of time but they all settled in the tri- county area in New York where the counties of Onondaga, Cortland and Madison come together. In the sections below families are grouped together with their children’s families indented under their parents. The primary names are: BURKE, CAREY. DUGGAN, DWYER, GLEASON, HAYES, HEFFERNAN, KENNEDY, LEE, LONERGAN, LONG, MALONEY, McAULIFFE, McGRATH, PHELAN, SHANAHAN, SHEAHAN and RYAN. There are twenty-seven (27) families, represented by 62 individuals arriving in the central New York area, who had connections back to the Upperchurch area of Co. Tipperary, Ireland. They are assigned to family groups, however the entire family didn’t always arrive together in America. Sometimes individuals came alone and sent for their immediate families after establishing themselves. Over subsequent years, brothers and sisters and their families would join the original relatives to settle in the same area. Eventually even the parents would sometimes be brought over to America. The order of the family group listings, in this document, is based on the earliest arrival of a member of the family group.
