In writing this thesis, I hope that I have, in some way, managed to explain the reasons for this cultural diversity. This thesis would not have been written without the assistance of my two supervisors, Professor Mike Cronin and Professor Matthew Taylor. Professor Cronin’s assistance and knowledge has transformed the way I think about history, society and sport while Professor Taylor’s expertise has also made me look at the writing of sports history and the development of society in a different way.

  • World War I in 1916
    MAJOR EVENTS AFFECTING THE COUNTY IN 1916 In a front line trench, France, World War I (Library of Congress, Washington) World War I in 1916 When war was declared on 4 August 1914, there were already over 25,000 Irishmen serving in the regular British Army with another 30,000 Irishmen in the reserve. As most of the great European powers were drawn into the War, it spread to European colonies all over the world. Donegal men found that they were fighting not only in Europe but also in Egypt and Mesopotamia as well as in Africa and on ships in the North Sea and in the Mediterranean. 1916 was the worst year of the war, with more soldiers killed this year than in any other year. By the end of 1916, stalemate on land had truly set in with both sides firmly entrenched. By now, the belief that the war would be ‘over by Christmas’ was long gone. Hope of a swift end to the war was replaced by knowledge of the true extent of the sacrifice that would have to be paid in terms of loss of life. Recruitment and Enlisting Recruitment meetings were held all over the County. In 1916, the Department of Recruiting in Ireland wrote to Bishop O’Donnell, in Donegal, requesting: “. that recruiting meetings might with advantage be held outside the Churches . after Mass on Sundays and Holidays.” 21 MAJOR EVENTS AFFECTING THE COUNTY IN 1916 Men from all communities and from all corners of County Donegal enlisted. They enlisted in the three new Army Divisions: the 10th (Irish), 16th (Irish) and the 36th (Ulster), which were established after the War began.

From Carndonagh the Carndonagh R238 runs north west, parallel to the shore of Trawbreaga bay. As it bears south (about 3 kms before for sea trout though there are also mullet and mackerel present. Fly-fishing is both popular and R238 Ballyliffin), a small road runs north to Doagh Island. This affords easy access to the southern side of effective, as is spinning and free lining sand eel early in the season. Fishing is from the shore or R244 the main channel leading to Trawbreaga bay. The whole bay can be fished from a boat, but from the boat and the season runs from March 1st to the 30th September.

  • Killult Falcarragh County Donegal 27 July 2019 Mr
    Killult Falcarragh County Donegal 27 July 2019 Mr Michael Creed TD Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine Agriculture House Kildare Street Dublin DO2 WK12 Dear Minister Creed, Re: Appropriate Assessment Report on Aquaculture in Ballyness Bay Special Area of Conservation Site Code 001090 I am an ecologist and in the 16 years I have been living on the shore of Ballyness Bay I have become very familiar with the Bay and its inhabitants. In recent years I have been guiding winter bird-watching trips around the Bay as well as Corncrake talk-and-tours in the summer months. So it was with shock that I heard of the proposals for licensing aquaculture here. Having read the above document I have two separate points of concern: the way the licensing process has been carried out; and the Appropriate Assessment document itself. I believe the manner in which this process was carried out was not in line with the requirements of the Aarhus Convention. The EU states that “The management of Natura 2000 sites is best done by working closely with the landowners and stakeholder groups in or around individual Natura 2000 sites”. That did not happen here. Little attempt was made to inform or involve landowners or stakeholders, most of whom only learned about the proposed licences when the so-called “public consultation” phase had already concluded. A notice was published in The Donegal Democrat, but a newspaper with a lower circulation in this area would have been hard to find. The local Garda station, in which a notice was placed, is only open for a few hours each week and anyway who, in this day and age, regularly visits their local Garda station? No Planning Application Notices were posted on access points to the Bay, so it appears the State is not held to the same rules as its citizens.

Bathing Water Details: Map 1: Bathing Water Location & Extent Bathing Water location and Drumnatinny (Droim na Tine) Beach is located in a rural area on the North Coast of the Donegal, extent: approximately 3 km from the town of Falcarragh. It is located in the Northwestern Atlantic Seaboard Coastal waterbody (NW_100_0000) within the North Western River Basin District. The designated bathing area is approx. 1.317km2 and the extent along the water is approximately is 4250m Main features of the Bathing Type of Bathing Water: Drumnatinny beach consists of a long sandy beach; confined by Ballyness Bay Water: to the West and by Crockagarran and a small series of headlands to the East. The beach is North facing into the Atlantic Ocean and gets a strong wash of water from the rough sea directly onto the beach. Flora/Fauna, Riparian Zone: The beach and catchment make up a large area. The riparian zone is natural with two towns and scattered on-off housing development in the catchment. One of the largest unvegetated sand dune sites in the country occurs here and includes the two Annex I habitats, shifting dunes along the coastline and embryonic shifting dunes.

  • Name and Location of Natura 2000 Site: Dredging of up to 20000 Tonnes Of
    Name of project or plan: Dredging of up to 20,000 tonnes of sediments, mainly sand, annually over a 5 -year period at Magheraroarty Pier and associated beach nourishment at Dooey strand, Co Donegal (MS51/15693) Name and location of Natura 2000 site: Ballyness Bay SAC (Site Code 001090) and Falcarragh to Meenlaragh SPA (Site Code 004149). Ballyness Bay contains several important coastal habitats listed in Annex I of the EU Habitats Directive including the priority habitat, fixed dune. The site is also an important wildfowl site. The bay is almost completely cut off from the open sea by the two large sand dune covered spits: Dooey Strand Drumnatinny Beach Ballyness Bay is situated in north-west Donegal adjacent to the towns of Gortahork and Falcarragh. Ballyness Bay is a large and very shallow estuarine complex, with extensive areas of sand flats which are exposed at low tide. The intertidal sand flats often have a rich macro invertebrate fauna, with notable populations of Lugworm (Arenicola marina) and Common Cockle (Cardium edule). Eelgrass (Zostera sp.) is also present. The bay is almost completely cut off from the open sea by two large sand-dune covered spits. The Dooey sand dunes are highly dynamic and have grown to a considerable height near the tip of the spit - they contain what is probably the largest unvegetated sand dune in the country. The succession of vegetation types across the spit and the topographical features make this area of special interest. Of particular importance are the fixed dunes, a priority habitat on Annex I of the EU Habitats Directive, which occur along the length of the Dooey sand spit.
