  • 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.

  • 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.
