APPENDIX 8 – RECORD OF PROTECTED STRUCTURES Explanatory Notes The Record of Protected Structures below contains the structures protected under Section 51 of the Planning and Development Acts 2000- 2011 for the electoral area of Meath County. The towns of Navan, Trim and Kells have their own Record of Protected Structures contained in their respective development plans. An up-to-date RPS, incorporating any additions or deletions within the lifetime of the current development plan, will be maintained on the Council’s website or can be checked at the public counter of the Planning Office. Structures may be added to the RPS, without the need to make a variation of the Development Plan, and updated records and proposals for new additions will be available for inspection in the offices of the Planning Authority. Developers and persons proposing to purchase historic buildings are advised to check the updated Record of Protected Structures. The Record of Protected Structures is displayed in the form of a table, the rows relate to individual structures and the columns correspond to various fields of information relating to each Structure, outlined below. The ID no is a unique reference number identifying the structure on the RPS database of protected structures in Meath and on the set of RPS maps accompanying this Plan. Structure Name refers either to the title of a building, e.g. Garda Station, or the name of the business currently located in a building, e.g. ‘The Village Inn’ or the generic name of a structure e.g. post box, or dwelling house. In certain cases where limited protection applies this is indicated in this column – e.g. “façade only “ Number is the postal address number of the building in a particular street, or the number shown on the façade or shopfront signage. Street/Townland gives the location of the structure within the survey area either by street or townland name. Building Type relates to the current use of the building, usually at entrance level only. Description gives a brief description of the structure. This is intended to identify the structure and avoid confusion with other, similar structures. It is not a complete description of the structure and does not suggest that only those elements referred to are protected, or that the elements so described are of particular importance. NIAH Reg. No. refers to the registration number on the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage building survey of County Meath. The NIAH is a section within the Department of the Arts Heritage and the Gaeltacht. The work of the NIAH involves identifying and recording the architectural heritage of Ireland, from 1700 to the present day. You see this survey on line at www.buildingsofireland.ie While the majority of the structures in the NIAH survey are included on the RPS, not all are. In addition, the RPS contains other structures which were not visited by the NIAH.

Site selection was carried out using the Forest Inventory Planning System 1998 (FIPS) and local knowledge. Surveys comprised the recording of site species lists and information at the site level on topography, management, grazing, natural regeneration, geographical situation, adjacent habitat types, invasive species, dead wood and boundaries. Relevés were recorded in each of the main stand types identified at each site. For each relevé, data were recorded on vascular plant and bryophyte cover abundance, soil type and soil chemistry, notable lichens, stand structure, and natural regeneration. Data were also incorporated from a number of external sources. This resulted in a database with data from 1,320 sites and 1,667 relevés. The relevé dataset was analysed using hierarchical clustering and indicator species analysis. Four major woodland groups were defined: Quercus petraea – Luzula sylvatica (260 relevés), Fraxinus excelsior – Hedera helix (740 relevés), Alnus glutinosa – Filipendula ulmaria (296 relevés) and Betula pubescens – Molinia caerulea (371 relevés). Further analysis of the dataset divided these four groups into twenty-two vegetation types. For each vegetation type a synoptic table of the floristic data was produced, together with a list of key indicator species, a list of example sites, summary environmental and stand structure data and a distribution map.

    Residential Tenancies Board

    Residential Tenancies Board Rent Index Q4 2020 About Us What is the Residential Tenancies Board? The Residential Tenancies Board, also known as the RTB, is a public body set up to support and develop a well-functioning rental housing sector. Our remit extends to the private rental, Approved Housing Body and Student Specific Accommodation sectors. Our role is to regulate the rental sector, provide information and research to inform policy, maintain a national register of tenancies, resolve disputes between tenants and landlords, initiate an investigation into Improper Conduct by a landlord, and provide information to the public to ensure tenancies run smoothly and no issues arise. What We Do Information, Research and Education The RTB provides high-quality information and assistance to landlords, tenants and the public on their rental rights and responsibilities, both in terms of living in and providing accommodation in the rental sector. We also provide accurate and authoritative data on the rental sector, such as the Quarterly Rent Index, which allows us to monitor trends in the rental sector, but also allows individuals to check and compare rents in particular locations. Registrations All private residential landlords, Approved Housing Bodies (who are not-for-profit housing providers, often referred to as Housing Associations) and landlords of Student Specific Accommodation must register their tenancies with the RTB. You can search to see if a tenancy is registered on the RTB website. The registration of tenancies enables us to collect important data on the sector. It is also a key part of regulating and supporting the sector and ensuring that landlords and tenants are aware of their rights and responsibilities.

    Architectural Conservation Areas

    A3 Architectural Conservation Areas 415 A3 Architectural Conservation Areas ARDBRACCAN DEMESNE ACA Historical Development Ardbraccan House and demesne occupy an historically important site as it has been the seat of the Bishops of Meath since the fourteenth century. The house is set in mature pasture land with formal and walled gardens. The construction of the house commenced c. 1734 to the designs of Richard Castle and was completed in the 1770’s to the designs of James Wyatt, Thomas Cooley and the Rev. Daniel Beaufort. Built Form The domestic and agricultural outbuildings associated with Ardbraccan House display an exceptionally high level of architectural design. These include piggeries, granary, dovecotes, bell tower, bullock sheds, carriage house, fowl yards, laundry yard, pump yard, slaughter house, vaulted stables, and clock tower. The Demesne structures include the gate lodges, entrance gates and walls, ha-ha, eel pond, ice house, vineries, grotto, and water pump. The detached two-storey four-bay house, possibly the farm manager’s house, was built c.1820, of randomly coursed limestone with roughcast render and raised rendered quoins. The particular interest of this building is in its relationship with the single-storey cottages to the immediate north. Within the demesne are other structures – St Ultan’s Church and graveyard, Infant school, dated 1856, and holy well. Objectives 1. To preserve the character of the demesne, its designed landscape and built features by limiting the extent of new development permitted within the demesne and requiring that any such development respect the setting and special qualities of the demesne. 2. To require that all works, whether of maintenance and repair, additions or alterations to existing buildings or built features within the demesne shall protect the character of those buildings and features by the use of appropriate materials and workmanship.

  • Introduction

    Introduction

    INTRODUCTION 1.1 Under the Local Government (Planning and Development) Acts, each Planning Authority is obliged to prepare a Development Plan for its functional area and review this Development Plan every five years. The Development Plan is the core document of the planning and development process. It presents Sligo County Council’s short to medium term view of the future development of the county and underpins the Council’s overall objectives of promoting and facilitating development, conserving the environment and achieving optimum use of resources. The Development Plan provides a framework for the physical development of the county and allows for sustainable, co-ordinated and orderly growth which respects the county’s natural, built and heritage resources. This County Development Plan reviews and updates the previous County Development Plan adopted by Sligo County Council in 1985. It takes account of the major developments that have occurred since 1985 in terms of population and economic trends, physical infrastructure, growth patterns and social deprivation. It recognises and sets out physical development objectives aimed at redressing the enduring problems of rural depopulation and disadvantage, dereliction, sporadic housing in scenic areas and service deficiencies. Every effort has been made to incorporate significant changes in legislation, Departmental guidelines, European Union directives and socio-economic factors impacting upon the development process; the intention is to present a concise, document which guides and informs the achievement of sustainable development1. Sligo County Council will have regard to the aims of Local Agenda 21 in the formulation and implementation of policies contained within the Development Plan2. Sligo County Council is committed to assisting the community in promoting environmental education, supporting local development group projects, providing local environmental information and engaging in public consultation procedures and partnerships.
