Tipperary. 2ist October 2020, Re: TipperaryCounty Development Plan Review A Chara, Please find hereunder the comments of Offaly County Council in respect of the review of the existing North and South Tipperary County Development Plans and the preparation of the new Tipperary County Development Plan for the period 2022-2028. Offaly County Council welcomes the opportunity to comment on the process and looks forward to continued co-operation with and between both Authorities; with particular reference to social, cultural and economic development and the protection of the environment. An example of such recent cooperation is in relation to Tipperary County Council having recently received an allocation under the Active Travel fund to provide a cycle route linking the towns of Nenagh and Roscrea with some of the route passing through Co. Offaly. Offaly County Council is currently reviewing its County Development Plan 2014-2020 and preparing a new County Development Plan 2021-2027, with a draft currently on public display until 7th October 2020. Birr County Offaly is located on the Tipperary- Offaly county boundary. Within the Draft Offaly county Development Plan, it should be noted that the proposed settlement typology description for Birr is as a 'Self Sustaining Growth Town'. This type of settlement is described in the Regional Spatial & Economic Strategy for the Eastern & Midlands Region as a settlement which is a sub-county market town that has significant employment and service functions relative to its regional and local catchment, has good regional transport links and has the capacity for continued commensurate growth to become more self-sustaining. The town is earmarked to grow at a sustainable level appropriate to its position in the settlement hierarchy. (Redacted Personal Information) 1ca:) Midlandslreland.ie gateway to growth Riverstown Village is located on the Tipperary - Offaly county boundary. Volume 2 of the draft Offaly County Development Plan includes Riverstown Village Plan. The following objectives in the plan should be considered to be reflected similarly in the Tipperary County Development Plan for the Tipperary side of Riverstown for consistency purposes: SO1 To ensure that future growth is balanced and sustainable and is appropriate to the scale, size and character of the existing village. SO2 To require new development to take cognisance of and to reinforce the existing rural character of the village in terms of scale, layout, detailed design and landscaping. SO5 To encourage local service provision in the village centre to serve the local population and commensurate with the size of the village. SO9 To protect the amenity value and rural character of the village, including the Little Brosna River, mature trees, hedgerows, stone boundary walls and archaeological features. SO10 To protect the carrying capacity, efficiency and road safety of the N52 through Riverstown. Volume 2 of the draft Offaly County Development Plan includes Moneygall Village Plan. tt is noted that located outside the village boundary is the Barack Obama Plaza within Co. Tipperary. Being located outside of the village centre it has had a pull on residents of Moneygall's catchment area, thereby adversely affecting the vitality and vibrancy of Moneygall village. The following objectives of the draft Moneygall Village Plan are designed to encourage the regeneration and appropriate growth of the village. Offaly County Council respectfully requests that careful assessment of any potential future planning applications / uses / policies for the Barack Obama Plaza occur with the health of Moneygall Village being considered. 50L To ensure that future growth is balanced and sustainable and is appropriate to the scale, size and character of the existing village. SO2 To encourage the re-use of vacant buildings, the development of infill sites and the completion of unfinished developments to create a compact, vibrant village. SO7 To capitalise on further tourist related opportunities for the village through the synergy with Barrack Obama Plaza, and to facilitate and develop uses, activities and public infrastructure to support the Village becoming a 'stop-off' destination for visitors to the midlands and south including visitors or tours on 'lreland's Ancient East' trail. Figure 6.13 in Chapter 5 Volume 1 of the Draft Offaly County Development Plan identifies proposed midlands cycle and walking routes. The zoomed in image below identifies in green the proposed indicativeroutesbetweenBirrandRoscreaandalsoBirrandPortumna. ltwouldbewelcomedifthe draft Tipperary County Plan likewise provides for this linkage in the interests of tourism development and to promote increased physical activity levels. The following policies / objectives in the draft Offaly plan are relevant: Policy SMAP-06: lt is an objective of the Council to collaborate with Bord na M6na and Coillte in the development of the 'Major Cycling Destination in the Midlands of lreland - Feasibility Study 2016' and to pursue the development of greenway links to adjoining counties. 2 Policy TRP-16: It is Council policy to supportthe extension of greenways, blueways, peatways and trails within the county and the integration and linkage of them with other existing/ proposed greenways, blueways, peatways and trails both within and outside County Offaly. Objective SO6 in the draft Riverstown Village Plan: It is an objective to support the examination of the proposed Birr to Portumna Greenway. (This route traverses through Riverstown). Offaly County Council respectfully requests that the relevant issues raised above are fully considered in the preparation of the Tipperary County Development Plan. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require clarification of any issues raised in this submission. Is mise le meas (Redacted Personal Information) 3 .

  • Title of Project: Andrew Gallagher: Remembering a Forgotten Soldier in the Irish Fight for Freedom
    Title of Project: Andrew Gallagher: Remembering a Forgotten Soldier in the Irish Fight for Freedom Category: ‘Decade of Centenaries’ – A Study of an Individual Name: Eimear Gallagher Roll No.: 65620V School Address: Sacred Heart School, Daingean Road, Tullamore, Co. Offaly Teacher: Orla Keane Contact No.: 057 93 21747 Contact E-mail: [email protected] Andrew Gallagher: Remembering a Forgotten Soldier in the Irish Fight for Freedom Foreword Andrew Gallagher was my great granduncle and lived in the house which my grandparents live in today in Tullamore, Co. Offaly. I had always been aware that Andrew had been involved in some way in the Offaly IRA during the establishment of the state but to what extent and the details of his involvement were unknown to me. My real interest in Andrew, or Andy as he was more commonly known, was ignited when I carried out a family genealogy project and discovered that his papers relating to this period, a Mauser c96 pistol and an RIC sword were all still in my grandparents house. Andrew Gallagher in his National Army, or Irish Free State Army, uniform The Mauser Pistol and RIC sword that are in my grandparent’s house As part of that project I gained a brief knowledge of Andy’s life during the period 1920-1922 and also discovered that his brother, Joseph had been interned in Ballykinlar Prison camp during the same period and was released after the Anglo-Irish Treaty 1921. His arrest was noted in the King’s County Chronicle on Thursday 30th December 1930. Joseph Gallagher (first row, second from right) Ballykinlar 1920 Like so many others, Andy is an almost forgotten soldier in the Irish fight for independence and in this project I tried to carry out more extensive research to find out exactly when Andy became involved with the Irish Volunteers, the role he played and the details of his actions during this period.

  • A Gazetteer of Castles in County Offaly Ballindarra
    BALLINDARRA A GAZETTEER OF CASTLES – Béal Átha na Darach (THE FORD-MOUTH OF THE OAK) NGR: 205309/203554 SMR NO. OFO35-021---- IN COUNTY OFFALY BARONY: Ballybritt TERRITORY: O’CARROLL’S COUNTRY [ÉILE UÍ CHEARBHAILL / ELY O’CARROLL] BY CAIMIN O’BRIEN CIVIL PARISH: Birr 17TH CENTURY PARISH: Birr BALLINDARRA CASTLE Location of Ballindarra Castle in Offaly and the surrounding counties A GAZETTEER OF CASTLES IN COUNTY OFFALY BALLINDARRA SUMMARY Today a modern bungalow stands inside the area of the bawn of the levelled O’Carroll castle. The castle was situated beside the medieval routeway connecting the medieval castles of Nenagh and Birr. It was strategically located to guard and control the fording point and bridge over the Little Brosna River which was the gateway to O’Carroll’s Country from the neighbouring lands of Ormond and the Gaelic territory of the O’Kennedys which now forms part of North Tipperary. Ballindarra Castle was a multi-storeyed tower house probably built in the late 15th or early 16th century by the O’Carrolls and was defended by a polygonal- shaped bawn wall. A short section of the upstanding wall, running parallel to the eastern bank of the river, may belong to the original bawn wall. Drawing c.1800, of Ballindarra Castle and Bawn from the Birr Castle archives (A/24) inspired by an account of the 1690 Siege of Birr. This drawing is an artist’s impression of a three storey roofless tower house standing inside an irregular-shaped bawn. It stands guarding the important pass or crossing point over the Little Brosna River which connected the medieval castles of Nenagh and Birr.

  • The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    THE LIST of CHURCH OF IRELAND PARISH REGISTERS A Colour-coded Resource Accounting For What Survives; Where It Is; & With Additional Information of Copies, Transcripts and Online Indexes SEPTEMBER 2021 The List of Parish Registers The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers was originally compiled in-house for the Public Record Office of Ireland (PROI), now the National Archives of Ireland (NAI), by Miss Margaret Griffith (1911-2001) Deputy Keeper of the PROI during the 1950s. Griffith’s original list (which was titled the Table of Parochial Records and Copies) was based on inventories returned by the parochial officers about the year 1875/6, and thereafter corrected in the light of subsequent events - most particularly the tragic destruction of the PROI in 1922 when over 500 collections were destroyed. A table showing the position before 1922 had been published in July 1891 as an appendix to the 23rd Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records Office of Ireland. In the light of the 1922 fire, the list changed dramatically – the large numbers of collections underlined indicated that they had been destroyed by fire in 1922. The List has been updated regularly since 1984, when PROI agreed that the RCB Library should be the place of deposit for Church of Ireland registers. Under the tenure of Dr Raymond Refaussé, the Church’s first professional archivist, the work of gathering in registers and other local records from local custody was carried out in earnest and today the RCB Library’s parish collections number 1,114. The Library is also responsible for the care of registers that remain in local custody, although until they are transferred it is difficult to ascertain exactly what dates are covered.
