Julianstown and District Community Association, Ireland Julianstown County Meath Ireland The International Awards for Liveable Communities The International Awards For Category A Population Up to 20,000 1 Introduction Julianstown in County Meath is a small rural village on the eastern coast of Ireland, the village lies nestled in a valley within a rural agricultural setting. It has a population of around 600 and is a distance of approximately 41 Kilometers north of Dublin and a short distance to the historical town of Drogheda. Located on the busy R132 regional road, this busy main road was the original Dublin to Belfast route, crossing the river Nanny that flows through the centre of the village. It is here that the center of Julianstown was developed with the building and development of a corn mill and bridge in the 16th century. The river Nanny rises east of Navan before reaching Julianstown and then flows out to the sea at Laytown which is on the east coast. Here there is easy access to the beautiful sandy beaches of the east coast; other attractions in the local area include golf, angling, horse racing and equestrian centers. Short distances from Julianstown are two of the most significant sites in Ireland. The largest and most important prehistoric megalithic burial site in Europe, that of Newgrange, a UNESCO World Heritage Centre at Brú na Bóinne, Meath is known as the Royal County and is the ancient seat of the High Kings of Ireland, who reigned here for centuries from their sacred hill at Tara. The county colours for Meath are of green and gold. Green for its rich grass pastures and gold for its royal association to the high kings of Ireland 2 Resource Information Meath County Council: County strategic plans, Arts, Heritage, Environment, Community, Recreational & Social Inclusion Plans www.meathcoco.ie Julianstown Village Design Statement: Julianstown Tourism Feasibility Study Julianstown Community website: www.julianstown.com County Meath Partnership www.meathpartnership.ie Maps Courtesy of: Julianstown Conservation Management Plan Submission Contact Details: Clare McEnaney The Gate Lodge Briarleas Juliantown County Meath e mail: [email protected] Mobile: 00 353 86 3991813 3 .

Miss Statement of Drogheda City Status Group is as follows: “To procure City Status for Drogheda to enable its unique hisory, location and potential to be appreciated and promoted in indusry, sinss touris education, health and quality of life to the benefit and advantage of its citizens and ths of the South Louth and Eas Meath region.” Drogheda City Status preliminary study came to the conclusion that Drogheda’s problems stemmed from the lack of understanding and appreciation by policy makers of the importance and potential of the town and region. It became clear to us that policy makers in Dublin shared this flawed view of the Drogheda region and its proper status. 2 | Page Drogheda Iread’s arges on, (forerly a conty in s own rght) has been a ere o imporae for ards o 800 ears.
