Report production: July 2009 Consultation: August 2009 SUMMARY Ponds are an important freshwater habitat that has been shown to play a key role in maintaining biodiversity at landscape level. However, ponds are also vulnerable to environmental degradation and there is evidence that, at a national level, pond quality is declining. In 2007, the biodiversity importance of ponds was recognised when high quality ponds (Priority Ponds) were added to the list of UK Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) Priority Habitats.

  • 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.

  • Our 2010 Vacation in Ireland We Arrived in Dublin on Saturday, May 22 and Made the About 2-Hour Drive West to the Inny Bay B&B in Co
    Ireland 2010 Our 2010 Vacation in Ireland We arrived in Dublin on Saturday, May 22 and made the about 2-hour drive west to the Inny Bay B&B in Co. Westmeath, north of the town of Athlone in the Irish midlands, on Lough Ree. We learned a bit about using a GPS, because had neither a street address nor coordinates for the B&B. We had to get close and stop at a house to ask directions. The B&B is on private land at the end of a 2 km long private road. We took a three hour nap to adjust for jet lag, and then drove to the nearby town of Ballymahon where we had sea bass, and of course, potatoes for dinner. The Inny Bay B&B is a pretty place amid nice scenery, with pastures, swans, the lough and the Inny River. Sunday’s breakfast, like the others at this B&B was huge, with bacon, kippers, etc. We took a morning walk along the Inny River. Then we visited Locke’s Distillery Museum in Kilbeggan, Co. Westmeath. It’s said to be the world’s oldest licensed pot distillery. The works and museum were interesting and the sample of its whiskey was excellent. We next headed for Clonmacnoise, in Shannonbridge, south of Athlone. It’s an early (6th century) Christian site with an Abby ruin, a church (St. Kiernan’s, Church of Ireland), a tower ruin, and a graveyard noted for its Celtic (or “high”) crosses. On our way there we spotted a castle ruin and found the curator there.
