Tipperary, Commandant Vlll Battalion, 3rd Tipperary Brigade. 1 was a youth of 17 years of age when the Insurrection took place in Easter Week of 1916. I had just finished my school-going days and had commenced to assist my father in his hardware business in my native town of Carrick-on-Suir. There was then no unit of the Irish Volunteers in Carrick-on-Suir.. There were, however, in the town a. few nationally minded people, such as Dr. Murphy, Maurice Hickey and some members of the Dowley families, who had broken away from the Redmond ite Party and the Irish National Volunteers when the split took place in that body a few years before, but, as far as I am no effort was made to establish an aware, Irish Volun6eer company. On the other hand, Carrick-on-Suir held amongst the towns of Ireland the unenviable distinction of, in proportion to its population, giving the second highest percentage of recruits to the British Army.

Waterford SURVEY OF PRE-1923 COUNTY WATERFORD INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE 1. INTRODUCTION Waterford County Council, supported by the Heritage Council, commissioned Dublin Civic Trust in July 2007 to compile an inventory of the extant pre-1923 industrial heritage structures within Waterford County. This inventory excludes Waterford City from the perimeters of study, as it is not within the jurisdiction of Waterford County Council. This survey comes from a specific objective in the Waterford County Heritage Plan 2006 – 2011, Section 1.1.17 which requests “…a database (sic) the industrial and engineering heritage of County Waterford”. The aim of the report, as discussed with Waterford County Council, is not only to record an inventory of industrial archaeological heritage but to contextualise its significance. It was also anticipated that recommendations be made as to the future re-use of such heritage assets and any unexplored areas be highlighted. Mary Teehan buildings archaeologist, and Ronan Olwill conservation planner, for Dublin Civic Trust, Nicki Matthews conservation architect and Daniel Noonan consultant archaeologist were the project team.

  • Volume 4 - Environmental Report
    Waterford County Development Plan 2011-2017 Plean Forbartha Chontae Phort Láirge 2011-2017 Volume 4 - Environmental Report Waterford County Council STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT STATEMENT WATERFORD COUNTY DEVELOPMENT PLAN REVIEW 2011 - 2017 February 2011 Waterford County Council Comhairle Chontae Port Láirge SEA Statement An Environmental Report was prepared by Waterford County Council on the potential significant environmental impacts of the Draft County Waterford Development Plan 2011-2017. Alternatives were considered for the future growth of the county that included continuing with existing amount of zoning in the County Development Plan 2005-2011 or reducing the area of zoned land in support of objectives in the Regional Planning Guidelines, Water Framework Directive and national energy policy. The preferred strategy was a reduction in zoned land to an area of 461 ha for residential development. Publication of the South East Regional Planning Guidelines 2010-2022 and provisions of the Planning Act 2000 (as amended) has stipulated the need for alignment of the Core Strategy with the Regional Planning Guidelines population thresholds and consequently a review of the Core Strategy contained in the Draft County Development Plan will commence in 2011. The Environmental Report highlighted key environmental pressures in the county that include water quality with the need to restore surface water quality in Dungarvan Bay, and Waterford Estuary, groundwaters around the River Suir, bathing waters in Ardmore and Dunmore East, continued monitoring of public water supplies and provision of sufficient capacity in waste water treatment plants and the Seven Villages Scheme. The need to maintain water quality is key to conservation of biodiversity and water dependant habitats and species.

  • Upland Areas
    Guide to birdwatching sites in Co Waterford Upland areas There are three mountain ranges in County Waterford. The Knockmealdown mountains, divided by one of the most beautiful mountain passes in the country, lie in the north-west of the county, on the border with Tipperary which holds the main part of the range. The Comeragh and Monavullagh mountains, or the Comeraghs as both ranges are collectively known, form a large isolated massif in the heart of Waterford surrounded by rich agricultural land. Although Old Red Sandstone is the predominant rock formation in these mountain ranges, the topography is strikingly different. The flat, almost featureless central plateau of the Comeraghs is ringed by several superb corries, due almost entirely to ice-action or glaciation. By contrast, the Knockmealdowns consist of an impressive row of peaks surrounded by extensive heather moorland with few deep glens or corries. During the Glacial Period, ice and snow was slow to melt in some mountain ranges, particularly on north- and east- facing slopes, and these glaciers, in slipping slowly down the mountain sides, gouged out rocks and boulders, resulting in precipices at the valley tops and often along the sides with deep basins below. The material scooped out was deposited across the valley lower down and the ice and water residue was retained, forming the spectacular corries found in the Comeraghs. There are no less than 16 corrie lakes in the Comeragh range and one in the Knockmealdowns; all occur at around 400 metres in the coums backed by lofty cliffs. The higher reaches of the Waterford mountain ranges are to be visited more for their scenery than for their birdlife.
