  • Carlingford Lough Boat Trail
    Carlingford Lough Boat Trail LOUGHS AGENCY EARNING A WELCOME 1. Please be friendly and polite to local residents and other water users. 2. Drive with care and consideration and park sensibly. 3. Change clothing discreetly (preferably out of public view). 4. Gain permission before going on to private property. 5. Minimise your impact on the natural environment and use recognised access points. There are many unofficial access points which could be used with the owner’s consent. 6. Be sensitive to wildlife and other users regarding the level of noise you create. 7. Observe wildlife from a distance and be aware of sensitive locations such as bird nest sites, bird roosts, seals on land and wintering wildfowl and wader concentrations. 8. Follow the principles of ‘Leave No Trace’. For more information visit:- www.leavenotraceireland.org 9. Keep the numbers in your party consistent with safety, the nature of the water conditions and the impact on your surroundings. 10. Biosecurity: sailors must help stop the spread of invasive species threatening our waterways and coasts! Wash and thoroughly dry boats, trailers and all other kit after a trip. Desiccation is effective against most invasive species, countering their serious environmental and economic impacts. WILDLIFE Carlingford Lough is frequented by otters and seals. In 2016, a bow head whale was spotted off the mouth of the lough and basking shark and dolphin have been reported. Boat fishing for Tope (a shark) and other species is popular in the area. Waders and wildfowl (often breeding in the arctic) winter here, feeding on mudflats as the tide recedes.

The brochures of the shared Oriel Trail, the Stephenson Pond, and in particular the Knockbridge Rural Village, are all admirable. Now that the village has reached the higher level in the Competition, you will find that increases in marks are much slower and harder to come by: this is a factor common to all centres which do exceptionally well and is not a matter to be despondent about. When drawing your map, please be sure in future to mark all sites which should be visited - for example, Martin's Cross is not shown and could easily have been missed. Congratulations on obtaining substantial developmental grants. THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT Certainly as good as last year. It is good to see that important items of artistic merit, such as the Clarke and Mayer windows in the Church, are given prominence. The completion of the Burns House will be greatly looked forward to. LANDSCAPING The landscaping continues to be sensitive and attractive. The neighbourhood of the School continues this good tradition.

The area includes the majority of the town’s protected structures. Historical Development of the Area The town takes its name from the Irish - Ath Fhirdia, the ford on the river Dee where the legendary hero Cúchulainn fought and defeated his friend Ferdia in the course of the Táin Bo Cuailnge. In medieval times it was an important Norman walled town. Character Ardee is now an attractive broad-street town, and the commercial centre for its hinterland. The main street is lined by good houses, two and three storeys in height, with some interesting shopfronts, and is distinguished by two late medieval tower houses. The south end of the area features a pleasant riverside walk and some attractive rubble stone warehousing. Materials The prevailing materials in Ardee, as in most Irish small towns, are slated roofs and plastered facades with timber windows and shopfronts. The two tower houses and churches are of stone, while there are a small number of brick buildings, notably the Bank of Ireland and Hamills with decorative trim. Draft Louth County Development Plan 2009 - 2015 26 Appendix 5 Views Views up and down the street are dominated by Ardee Castle, while to the south the rich agricultural lands of mid-Louth can be seen.

  • 16 Cultural Heritage
    Carlingford Ferry 16 CULTURAL HERITAGE 16.1 Introduction John Cronin & Associates has been commissioned by RPS, to assess the cultural heritage impact of the proposed Carlingford Ferry between Greenore, Co. Louth and Greencastle, Co. Down. The Archaeological Diving Company Ltd. (ADCO) was appointed to conduct an underwater/foreshore archaeological assessment of the landing stages for the Greenore-Greencastle Ferry Project, by John Cronin & Associates. The landing stages are located in Greenore townland, Co. Louth, and Greencastle, Co. Down, at ING 322473E 311019N and ING 324887E 311569N respectively. Frazer Ferries Ltd proposes to construct facilities at both Greenore in Co. Louth and Greencastle in Co. Down to allow operation of a vehicular ferry across the mouth of Carlingford Lough. The proposals are fully described in Chapter 3 Project Description For purposes of this report, the term ‘Cultural Heritage’ encompasses the archaeological, architectural and local heritage (placenames, folklore etc.) resources. 16.2 Methodology 16.2.1 Desk Study A desktop survey of archaeological and cultural heritage sites within approximately 1km of the area of the proposed development at both Greenore and Greencastle was carried out in order to assess heritage constraints. The Sites and Monuments Record (SMR) of County Down and the Record of Monuments and Places (RMP) for County Louth, were the principal sources for identifying archaeological constraints. In addition the following sources were consulted: Shipwreck inventory of Ireland (Louth, Meath, Dublin & Wicklow); Various articles published in local and national journals; Irish Excavation database; Northern Ireland Industrial Archaeological Record; Northern Ireland Defence Heritage Record; Northern Ireland Historic Buildings Register; Northern Ireland Register of Historic Parks, Gardens and Demesnes; Northern Ireland Heritage Gardens Inventory; Northern Ireland Buildings at Risk Register and County Louth Development Plan 2009-2015.
