  • The History of Luttrellstown Demesne, Co. Dublin
    NORTHERN IRELAND HERITAGE GARDENS TRUST OCCASIONAL PAPER, No 4 (2015) 'Without Rival in our Metropolitan County' - The History of Luttrellstown Demesne, Co. Dublin Terence Reeves-Smyth Luttrellstown demesne, which occupies around 600 acres within its walls, has long been recognised as the finest eighteenth century landscape in County Dublin and one of the best in Ireland. Except for the unfortunate incorporation of a golf course into the eastern portion of its historic parkland, the designed landscape has otherwise survived largely unchanged for over two centuries. With its subtle inter-relationship of tree belts and woodlands, its open spaces and disbursement of individual tree specimens, together with its expansive lake, diverse buildings and its tree-clad glen, the demesne, known as 'Woodlands' in the 19th century, was long the subject of lavish praise and admiration from tourists and travellers. As a writer in the Irish Penny Journal remarked in October 1840: ‘considered in connection with its beautiful demesne, [Luttrellstown] may justly rank as the finest aristocratic residence in the immediate vicinity of our metropolis.. in its natural beauties, the richness of its plantations and other artificial improvements, is without rival in our metropolitan county, and indeed is characterised by some features of such exquisite beauty as are rarely found in park scenery anywhere, and which are nowhere to be surpassed’.1 Fig 1.

  • CSG Bibliog 24
    CASTLE STUDIES: RECENT PUBLICATIONS – 29 (2016) By Dr Gillian Scott with the assistance of Dr John R. Kenyon Introduction Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the CSG annual bibliography, this year containing over 150 references to keep us all busy. I must apologise for the delay in getting the bibliography to members. This volume covers publications up to mid- August of this year and is for the most part written as if to be published last year. Next year’s bibliography (No.30 2017) is already up and running. I seem to have come across several papers this year that could be viewed as on the periphery of our area of interest. For example the papers in the latest Ulster Journal of Archaeology on the forts of the Nine Years War, the various papers in the special edition of Architectural Heritage and Eric Johnson’s paper on moated sites in Medieval Archaeology. I have listed most of these even if inclusion stretches the definition of ‘Castle’ somewhat. It’s a hard thing to define anyway and I’m sure most of you will be interested in these papers. I apologise if you find my decisions regarding inclusion and non-inclusion a bit haphazard, particularly when it comes to the 17th century and so-called ‘Palace’ and ‘Fort’ sites. If these are your particular area of interest you might think that I have missed some items. If so, do let me know. In a similar vein I was contacted this year by Bruce Coplestone-Crow regarding several of his papers over the last few years that haven’t been included in the bibliography.

  • Archaeology & Cultural Heritage
    Chapter 4: Archaeology & Cultural Heritage Golf Lane SHD Environmental Impact Assessment Report Chapter 4 – Archaeology and Cultural Heritage 4.0 ARCHAEOLOGY AND CULTURAL HERITAGE 4.1 INTRODUCTION 4.1.1 GENERAL The following chapter details a pre-planning archaeological assessment undertaken for a proposed residential development at Golf Lane, Glenamuck Road in Carrickmines Great, Dublin 18 (Figure 4.1, ITM 721600, 723950). This assessment has been carried out to ascertain the potential impact of the proposed development on the archaeological and historical resource that may exist within the area. The assessment was undertaken by Maeve Tobin and Jacqui Anderson of IAC Archaeology. The site partially lies within the zone of notification for Carrickmines Castle and associated features (DU026-005), a National Monument in local authority ownership. Archaeological testing was carried out within this part of site in 2007, although no archaeology was found at this time (Ministerial Consent C207, Registration No. E003332). Pre- planning consultation with the NMS noted that further testing should be carried out to inform this impact assessment; however, the current site conditions meant that this is not currently feasible (Figure 4.4). Detailed relating to all recorded monuments in the study area are included in Appendix 4.1. The archaeological assessment involved a detailed study of the archaeological and historical background of the proposed development site and the surrounding area. This included information from the Record of Monuments and Places of County Dublin, the topographical files within the National Museum and all available cartographic and documentary sources for the area. A field inspection has also been carried out with the aim to identify any previously unrecorded features of archaeological or historical interest.

  • Splendid Isolation: How to Find Your Perfect Castle
    MENU monday september 7 2020 14: The stunning Lismore Castle in Co Waterford dates back to the 12th century TRAVEL Splendid isolation: how to find your perfect castle Overseas tourists often say they come to Ireland for the castles, but for now we have them all to ourselves — and there is one to suit every pocket Rose Costello Sunday August 16 2020, 12.01am BST, The Sunday Times Share Save It may sound like an exaggeration to say Ireland has a castle for every budget, but it’s true. All of that money you saved by not flying to Japan for the Olympics, or getting your highlights done, can be spent as king or queen of the castle — if only for a few days. Fabulous estates are available to rent for upwards of €50,000 a week, with a chef, butler and other sta. There are also rustic towers where you can play chieftain in front of a roaring fire. Those who are short of cash can camp in the shadow of a ruin, though it’s advisable to avoid the one next to the M50. Cong Camping, Caravan and Glamping Park in the picturesque Mayo village, however, will let you pitch your tent beside a 12th- century ruin; or just book into one of the many luxurious hotel castles replete with turrets and policed by Irish wolfhounds. We may not have much sunshine in Ireland but we have history by the bucketload. It is estimated there are 3,000 castles on the island of Ireland, if you count every last crumbly ruin.
