  • Kerry Manor House Region: County Kerry Sleeps: 8 - 30
    Kerry Manor House Region: County Kerry Sleeps: 8 - 30 Overview The property is an attractive mid-Georgian house situated just off the Ring of Kerry, five miles west of Killarney. Set in forty acres of woodland overlooking the River Laune, it is ideally placed for exploring the many attractions of Kerry. The original building on the site was a short castle, so called because it was only two stories high. It was built by Captain O'Sullivan in 1641 and attacked by Cromwell's forces in 1654. In about 1760, the present house was built including having the remaining three walls of the castle forming the hallway. The interior was altered in 1830 and the chimney pieces and plaster work date from this time. The Manor House is approved by the Irish Tourist Board. It is listed in the current editions of the Fodor's and Karen Brown's Guide. Between the main house and the four cottages, the owners can accommodate any number from one to thirty people. This is ideal for families or groups of friends who wish to travel together but retain their independence.

W. Ireland, was chosen for the investigation, and from the ecological data available on the immature stages of Eurycnemus (Murray & Ashe 1981) it was assumed for the purposes of the search that E. crassipes is ectoparasitic on Hydropsyche prepupae/pupae. By driving long, upright branches into the Substrate, the riffle area was divided into three rectangular, box- like sections each about 1 m wide and 10 m long, the total area studied being about 30 Square metres. Work began on the downstream end of each box and every stone likely to support Hydropsyche pupal cases was examined. Any such cases found were removed, opened and discarded if nothing was found. Suspect cases were placed in a tray of river water for further examination, and those which contained or were suspected of containing larvae or pupae of E. crassipes were preserved in 75 % alcohol. Material found: Ireland, Co. Kerry, River Flesk (Grid reference: V964893), 8.VI11.1994, leg.

The upward trend in the quantity and value of the sea-fish landings evident since 1939 was resumed in 1948 after the set-back experienced in 1946 and 1947. Landings in 1948 of all sea fish with the exception of shell fish exceeded those of 1947 by 68,805 cwt. This overall increase was due to an increase in the weight of demersal fish landed amounting to 8,890 cwt. and, in the case of pelagic fish, an increase of 59,915 cwt. The quantity and value of the landings of all kinds of sea-fish (excluding shellfish) in each year since 1939 are as follows:— Year Cwt. £ 1948 385,243 595,647 1947 316,438 547,185 1946 326,039 562,769 1945 371,937 551,820 1944 306,869 513,063 1943 277,911 510,970 1942 252,703 433,650 • IW 275,793 499,904 1940 224,755 267,482 1939 187,949 196,199 The diagram opposite gives a graphic illustration of the fluciua lions in weights and values of landings year by year since 1930.
