    Mountaineering Ireland’s response to Carlow County Council re planning application 2113 - Croaghaun windfarm 25th February 2021 1 Contents 1. Introduction and context 3 2. Impact on Walking in the Blackstairs Mountains 3 3. Landscape and Visual Impact 7 4. Planning Context 9 5. Conclusions 11 6. About Mountaineering Ireland 11 References 12 2 1. Introduction and Context As the representative body for hillwalkers and climbers on the island of Ireland, Mountaineering Ireland has a particular concern for ensuring the sustainable use of Ireland’s upland areas. Mountaineering Ireland therefore represents a community of interest in this application, drawn from Co. Carlow, the south east, and across the island of Ireland. The Blackstairs Mountains are a hugely significant element landscape of the south-east, this chain of rounded granite mountains rises between the beautiful Barrow valley and the lowlands of Wexford, marking the boundary between counties Carlow and Wexford and forming a landscape cherished for its scenic qualities. The proposal is for a development comprising seven wind turbines with an overall height of up to 178m, mainly within Coillte forestry on Kilbrannish Hill, immediately north of the Corrabut Gap. The site is 3km north east of the well-known Nine Stones viewing point and less than 5km from the summit of Mount Leinster, the highest point in both Co. Carlow and Co. Wexford. The applicant is Coillte CGA. Commercial windfarms on this scale should be described as wind factories. Mountaineering Ireland is strongly of the view that the proposed development would be unacceptably damaging to the visual amenity and landscape character of this area.

    THE IRISH CATHOLIC EPISCOPAL CORPS, 1657 – 1829: A PROSOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS VOLUME 1 OF 2 BY ERIC A. DERR THESIS FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF IRELAND MAYNOOTH SUPERVISOR OF RESEARCH: DR. THOMAS O’CONNOR NOVEMBER 2013 Abstract This study explores, reconstructs and evaluates the social, political, educational and economic worlds of the Irish Catholic episcopal corps appointed between 1657 and 1829 by creating a prosopographical profile of this episcopal cohort. The central aim of this study is to reconstruct the profile of this episcopate to serve as a context to evaluate the ‘achievements’ of the four episcopal generations that emerged: 1657-1684; 1685- 1766; 1767-1800 and 1801-1829. The first generation of Irish bishops were largely influenced by the complex political and religious situation of Ireland following the Cromwellian wars and Interregnum. This episcopal cohort sought greater engagement with the restored Stuart Court while at the same time solidified their links with continental agencies. With the accession of James II (1685), a new generation of bishops emerged characterised by their loyalty to the Stuart Court and, following his exile and the enactment of new penal legislation, their ability to endure political and economic marginalisation. Through the creation of a prosopographical database, this study has nuanced and reconstructed the historical profile of the Jacobite episcopal corps and has shown that the Irish episcopate under the penal regime was not only relatively well-organised but was well-engaged in reforming the Irish church, albeit with limited resources. By the mid-eighteenth century, the post-Jacobite generation (1767-1800) emerged and were characterised by their re-organisation of the Irish Church, most notably the establishment of a domestic seminary system and the setting up and manning of a national parochial system.
