Many thanks for your application form with additional information. There are a number of easy ways in which you could enhance the presentation of your application form. In the first instance it is recommended that you use the electronic form over the hardcopy. This will give you all the space you need to describe your projects clearly and succinctly. The second point is to do with your additional information. The adjudicator welcomes the use of photos but these should be limited in number and be specifically related to projects undertaken. It is best to leave long descriptions out in favour brief captions which refer back to the application form. If presenting before and after photographs one of each is quite sufficient. Your additional information was tied together rather loosely in four different collections and this presented the adjudicator with a rather unwieldy volume of material. You could use a small ring binder or, better still, insert the photos digitally into the application form, thereby eliminating the need for loose pages.

  • Waldron Family History

    Waldron Family History

    WALDRON FAMILY HISTORY by Patrick J. M. Waldron, 55, Ard Coillte,, Ballina, Killaloe, Co. Clare, Ireland. Telephone: +353 87 2547230 Version 2.1 June 30, 2009 1 Origin of the Name Waldron The surname Waldron occurs in many parts of the world, but this paper con- centrates mainly on the history of the name in Ireland, where the modern name Waldron is used by several unrelated families with independent origins: 1. It is an anglicized surname for the descendants of Baildr´ınor Baldraithe MacCoisteala, who was of Norman descent and lived in the Barony of Costello in the east of County Mayo around the year 1300 (see below). Baildr´ınhas been translated ‘little Walter’. The Norman prefix de and the Gaelic prefix Mac have both been used by this family, reflecting the hibernicization of the Norman MacCoistealas and their descendants af- ter they settled in Mayo. The more usual forms of this family’s name in the Irish language nowadays are De Bhaldraithe and MacBhaildr´ın (MacLysaght 1985) (Molloy n.d.) (Comer and O´ Muraile 1986). 2. It is an anglicized form of MacBhalronta, an Irish patronymic assumed by the Wellesley family, who became established in County Meath in 1174 (MacLysaght 1985). The IGI [New York pages ?? and Ireland pages 28919–28923] (International Genealogical Index (IGI) 1988) for Ireland lists the following as alterna- tive names for this family: Walsey, Weasley, Welby, Wellesley, Willesby, Willoughby, Wilsey and Wolseley. 3. It was the surname of a 1609 immigrant from England, which was in turn derived from the Old-English forename Waleron or Waleran.

  • Crannogs — These Small Man-Made Islands

    Crannogs — These Small Man-Made Islands

    PART I — INTRODUCTION 1. INTRODUCTION Islands attract attention.They sharpen people’s perceptions and create a tension in the landscape. Islands as symbols often create wish-images in the mind, sometimes drawing on the regenerative symbolism of water. This book is not about natural islands, nor is it really about crannogs — these small man-made islands. It is about the people who have used and lived on these crannogs over time.The tradition of island-building seems to have fairly deep roots, perhaps even going back to the Mesolithic, but the traces are not unambiguous.While crannogs in most cases have been understood in utilitarian terms as defended settlements and workshops for the wealthier parts of society, or as fishing platforms, this is not the whole story.I am interested in learning more about them than this.There are many other ways to defend property than to build islands, and there are many easier ways to fish. In this book I would like to explore why island-building made sense to people at different times. I also want to consider how the use of islands affects the way people perceive themselves and their landscape, in line with much contemporary interpretative archaeology,and how people have drawn on the landscape to create and maintain long-term social institutions as well as to bring about change. The book covers a long time-period, from the Mesolithic to the present. However, the geographical scope is narrow. It focuses on the region around Lough Gara in the north-west of Ireland and is built on substantial fieldwork in this area.

(303EC-CL) approx 1.5 acre, offered in 1 or more lots. REDUCED TO €195.000 Descpription: This is one of the well-known landmark properties on the Shannon for decades. It is located at Cootehall bridge in Co. Roscommon between Carrick on Shannon and Boyle. Its prime location with ample mooring facilities an extensive riverfrontage outside Lough Key have made this property a popular stopover for many captains navigating the Shannon. It was an established restaurant known as Manfred’s Restaurant in the 1980s and 1990s and very popular. In 2006 the present owners purchased the property and upgraded it to a fine dining experience. The Cootehall Bridge Riverside Restauarant was well known for its award winning cuisine and an expanding business. Unfortunatly in the Winter of 2009 the waterways flooded the property and destroyed the restaurant and period house. All the buildings had to be gutted and are now in a structurally completed state. Currently in existence are: Former Restaurant, outhouses and two storey Guesthouse with residential accommodation on 1.5 acre. The present owner have been granted permission in 2010 to demolish existing restaurant, erect a building to comprise restaurant at ground level and residential accommodation at first level, to erect a studio building and pump station with main sewer connection. Pl. Ref. 10251, Co. Roscommon. The proposed new building is situated to the rear of the property, behind the existing natural stone two storey period building.
