Model 7 represents the Thomastown AFA and encompasses the River Nore upstream and downstream of its extent, plus associated tributaries. The total contributing area at the downstream limit of the model is 2,417km 2. A total of 72% of this comes from Model 5 upstream (Kilkenny).Both Model 6 (Callan) and Model 8 (Ballyhale) enter the River Nore at Model 7 (Thomastown). Model 6 (Callan) joins the Nore at the uppermost reach of the River Nore in Model 7 (Thomastown); whereas Model 8 (Ballyhale) joins the River Nore just upstream of the AFA in Model 7 (Thomastown). There are two gauging stations located along the length of the Thomastown model: • Mount Juliet (15011) – This gauge was not included in the FSU; • Brownsbarn (15006) – This gauge has an FSU rating of A2. Further information on these gauges is provided in Section 4.9.5. CFRAM rating reviews were carried out for both gauges in order to derive new Q med values at the stations. See Section 4.9.5(a) and (b) for full review details. Rainfall run-off (NAM) models have been developed for the contributing catchments of each gauging station in order to simulate longer AMAX series and increase confidence in the Q med . Following this process it was noted that there was significant discrepancy between simulated and gauged Q med values moving downstream. Details on how this was resolved and final Q med values is included in Section 4.4.5(e) of this report and Section 3.1 of the HA15 Hydrology Report. The simulated Q med values at each of these stations have been used to adjust FSU predicted values at each HEP within the Ballyragget model as appropriate. Qmed estimates at the various HEPs were derived using an FSU catchment descriptor-based equation, and adjusted based on the gauge at Brownsbarn or Mount Juliet as appropriate. A number of rivers have been identified as high priority watercourses within the Thomastown model, including Cloghabrody River, Jacks Stream River and a portion of the Nore River which passes through the AFA. These reaches have been modelled as 1D-2D using the MIKE suite of software. Upstream and downstream of the AFA the Nore River is designated MPW and has been modelled as 1D only. The IBE0601Rp0015 4.8-1 Rev F02 South Eastern CFRAM Study HA15 Hydraulics Report - DRAFT FINAL Brownsbarn (15006) gauging station is located at the downstream extent of the model reach, as such the model has been extended downstream by 900m to enable calibration of this gauge.

Overview This stretch of the Nore Valley Walk takes you through diverse countryside, pastoral lands and woodland; rich in flora and fauna. The river is noted for its salmon and also holds crayfish and otters and the arches of its bridges are favoured roosting spots for Daubenton bats. Steeped in history, since the 12th century the Nore was a vital Ballydu House trading route for export of corn, hides and livestock and the importation of exotic goods from other parts of the world such as wine, tobacco, cloth and spices via New START Ross and Waterford. There is the ruin of Grennan Castle built by Strongbow’s son-in- FINISH law in the 13th century at the start of the walk and through the pretty Dysart Woods, carpeted in springtime with wood anemones, bluebells and primroses. You’ll pass the ruins of Dysart Castle, home to philosopher Bishop George Berkeley who mused ‘are Woodstock Gardens objects there if we do not perceive them’?! The trail leads you on by Ballyduff House; a glorious Georgian country house in its stunning parkland setting, before entering the broadleaf Brownsbarn Wood and along a grassy riverside track where the view of the 10 arch bridge in picturesque Inistioge opens up ahead of you.

  • History and Explanation of the House Crests
    History and Explanation of the House Crests In August 2014, the first team of House student leaders and House Deans created the original House crests. The crests reveal each House’s unique identity, and represent important aspects in the life of Blessed Edmund Rice, founder of the Christian Brothers. Members of the Edmund Rice Christian Brothers founded O’Dea High School in 1923. These crests help keep the charism of Blessed Edmund Rice alive at O’Dea. Edmund Rice founded some of the earliest Christian Brother Schools in County Dublin. By 1907, there were ten Christian Brother school communities throughout the county. Dublin’s crest’s cross is off centered like the shield of St. John. Blue represents the Virgin Mother and yellow represents Christ’s triumph over death on the cross. Dublin’s motto “Trean-Dilis” is Gaelic for “strength and faithfulness.” The dragon represents strength; the Gaelic knot represents brotherhood; the cross represents our faith and religious identity; and the hand over heart represents diversity. County Limerick was home to some of the earliest Christian Brother Schools, beginning in 1816. Limerick’s crest boasts five main symbols. The River Shannon runs through the center. The flame on the crest stands for excellence. The Irish knot symbolizes the brotherhood, exemplified by Limerick’s caring and supportive relationships. The Irish elk, a giant extinct deer, symbolizes both strength and courage. Limerick’s final symbol is a multicolored shamrock representing O’Dea’s four houses. Limerick’s motto is “Strength in Unity.” County Kilkenny is known as the birthplace of Edmund Rice.

  • The War of Independence in County Kilkenny: Conflict, Politics and People
    The War of Independence in County Kilkenny: Conflict, Politics and People Eoin Swithin Walsh B.A. University College Dublin College of Arts and Celtic Studies This dissertation is submitted in part fulfilment of the Master of Arts in History July 2015 Head of School: Dr Tadhg Ó hAnnracháin Supervisor of Research: Professor Diarmaid Ferriter P a g e | 2 Abstract The array of publications relating to the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921) has, generally speaking, neglected the contributions of less active counties. As a consequence, the histories of these counties regarding this important period have sometimes been forgotten. With the recent introduction of new source material, it is now an opportune time to explore the contributions of the less active counties, to present a more layered view of this important period of Irish history. County Kilkenny is one such example of these overlooked counties, a circumstance this dissertation seeks to rectify. To gain a sense of the contemporary perspective, the first two decades of the twentieth century in Kilkenny will be investigated. Significant events that occurred in the county during the period, including the Royal Visit of 1904 and the 1917 Kilkenny City By-Election, will be examined. Kilkenny’s IRA Military campaign during the War of Independence will be inspected in detail, highlighting the major confrontations with Crown Forces, while also appraising the corresponding successes and failures throughout the county. The Kilkenny Republican efforts to instigate a ‘counter-state’ to subvert British Government authority will be analysed. In the political sphere, this will focus on the role of Local Government, while the administration of the Republican Courts and the Republican Police Force will also be examined.

National Heritage Week is co-ordinated by the Heritage Council, in conjunction with the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, and is part of European Heritage Days. 2014 is the 20th Anniversary of the United Nations ‘International Year of the Family’ and to tie in with this, the theme for National Heritage Week 2014 is ‘Family...generations exploring heritage together’. A new initiative this year is the launch of the European Heritage Days portal which maps thousands of heritage events in 50 countries, including Ireland, across Europe.
