Limerick Preliminary Archaeological Excavation Report by Edel Ruttle Introduction This report documents the results of an archaeological excavation of a deposit of bricks E2106 (Site A005/2022) on the route of the Limerick Southern Ring Road Phase II, Coonagh East, Co. Limerick (NGR154315 157075) (Fig. 1). The excavation forms part of the Limerick Southern Ring Road, Phase II, Northern Archaeological Contract. The National Monuments Act 1930 (as amended) provides the legislative framework within which archaeological excavation can take place and the following government publications set out many of the procedures relating to planning/development and archaeology: Framework and Principles for the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage (DAHGI 1999a) Policy and Guidelines on Archaeological Excavation (DAHGI 1999b) Code of Practice between the National Roads Authority and the Minister for Arts, Heritage, Gaeltacht and the Islands (NRA/MAHGI 2001) The archaeological work was carried out following Ministerial Direction given under the National Monuments (Amendment) Act 2004. Project background The Limerick Southern Ring Road Phase II (LSRR II) will extend west from the end of the Limerick Southern Ring Road Phase I at Rossbrien, to the existing N18 near Cratloe Castle. Once completed, LSRR II will form the final part of a southern bypass network around Limerick City, linking all converging routes. LSRR II will incorporate a fourth crossing of the River Shannon and will involve the construction of approximately 10km of new dual carriageway and 2km of associated link roads and side roads. The planned Public Private Partnership (PPP) project will involve an immersed tube tunnel, approximately 900m in length, linking the townland of Coonagh West, on the northern bank, with the townland of Bunlicky on the southern bank of the Shannon. Material extracted from the river during tunnel construction will be deposited across 27ha of ground in Coonagh West The road scheme is in accordance with European, National and Regional roads objectives and forms part of the development strategy for National Primary Roads as outlined in the National Development Plan (2000-2006). LSRR II is a joint project of Limerick County Council, Clare County Council and Limerick City Council in partnership with the National Roads Authority (NRA). NRA Project Archaeologist Celie O Rahilly requested a series of archaeological investigations along the route of the new road. This archaeological work included assessment of sites previously recognised and prospection for sites without surface expression by means of mechanical test trenching. A number of archaeological sites were confirmed or recognised during this testing. As preservation in situ was not a reasonable option, the resolution strategy for these sites was preservation by record, i.e. full archaeological excavation. 1 For the purposes of the archaeological component of the road scheme the project was divided into two contract lots: Southern and Northern Archaeological Services Contracts with the River Shannon separating the two elements. The archaeological fieldwork and post-excavation work were funded by Limerick County Council through the National Roads Authority under the National Development Plan 2000-2006. Location, topography and geology The site was located in the townland of Coonagh East, parish of Killeely, barony of North Liberties, Co. Limerick and was centred on NGR 154315 157075 (Figs 1 and 2). The field in which the site was discovered lies immediately to the west of a small stream orientated from north-west to south-east. At the time of the excavation the land was under rough pasture. The site lay at approximately 1.10m above Ordnance Datum (OD). The general topography of the area is flat pasture with reeds, intersected by deep ditches draining into the River Shannon. A thin layer of topsoil typically overlies fine dark blue/grey alluvial clay that deepens toward the River Shannon. The ground on the north bank of the river that will be used by the road and the dispersal area for material extracted during tunnel construction has been formed by the receding Shannon and by relatively modern reclamation (Deery 2003, Healy and Hickey 2002, Hull 2005). The modern ground surface, in most of the northern portion of the road route, lies between 0.5m below and 2m above (OD). Slightly higher ground (up to 4m above OD) was encountered adjacent to the village of Coonagh, at the Clonmacken roundabout and at Cratloe Castle. In these locations pinkish sandy clay with gravel (glacial till) was observed. The topsoil overlying the archaeological deposits was 0.20m thick. The underlying natural deposit was a grey alluvium. Archaeological and historical background As part of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for this road project, a Cultural Heritage and Archaeology Report (Deery 2003) was commissioned. This assessment of archaeology and built/cultural heritage was based on a desktop study of published and unpublished documentary and cartographic sources, supported by a field inspection and aerial inspection of the proposed route and an underwater archaeological assessment of Ballinacurra Creek, the River Shannon, Meelick Creek, and Cratloe Creek. As well as noting previously recognised monuments ranging in date from the Prehistoric to modern periods, the EIS indicated the potential for further archaeological deposits to be found along the road route. The following is a summary, by period, taken in part, from the EIS: Prehistoric Archaeological research, and the distribution of sites on the Shannon Estuary, suggests that the estuary was the focus of settlement and of traffic/trading during the prehistoric period. Intertidal and dry land surveys indicate that quite significant Bronze Age populations were active along the river shoreline and its hinterland, with settlements extending far inland. The earliest evidence for prehistoric activity in the study area is found adjacent to Coonagh East where a Neolithic submerged forest was exposed in peats on the upper foreshore at Meelick Rocks (approx. 200m west of the proposed route). A possible Neolithic stone axe was also found (NMI 95E0228: 3) with a variety of animal bones on the lower part of this foreshore in peats that were dated to the Mesolithic. The Bronze Age (c. 2300–500 BC) saw new developments in agriculture including the introduction of tillage. This period also saw new developments in ritual activity. A variety of burial monuments date 2 to this period including: wedge tombs, cairns, tumuli and barrows. Evidence for Late Bronze Age (1200–500BC) activity is also found in the study area to the north of the Shannon in Clonmacken, where a fragmented Bronze Age sword was found during the construction of the Ennis Road. An isolated cremation burial that is as yet undated but may well prove to be prehistoric was excavated at Clonmacken during this road project (E2109, Ruttle and Taylor 2005). Fulachta fiadh (or burnt stone mounds) were also recognised as probable monuments likely to be found on the low-lying wetlands adjacent to the River Shannon. Indeed, a number of fulachta fiadh and burnt stone spreads were excavated as part of this road project. Site E2903 (Reilly 2005a) lay 250m to the north-west, E2902 (Reilly 2005b) was 175m north-west and two examples were found within Site E2901 150m to the south-east (Taylor 2008). Early Medieval (c. AD 500–1100) An enclosure thought to be of this period is located in Coonagh (LI005:056) 70m north of the proposed route. Aerial photography in the vicinity of the site revealed the presence of possible associated rectilinear field systems, which radiate from the site in a south-south-east direction. A circular ditched enclosure was excavated 200m to the east of E2106 during this project.

In today’s environment of mobile, financial and human capital, the focus of economic competition is increasingly on city regions. This trend is particularly significant for an open economy such as Ireland which is competing in a global market for investment and talent. In 2014 Limerick City Council and Limerick County Council amalgamated into one body - Limerick City & County Council. As outlined in the Limerick 2030 Vision: An Economic and Spatial Plan for Limerick report, the objective of this merger was to extend the city boundary to include urbanised parts of the county and was seen as a ‘once in a generation opportunity’ to drive new levels of employment and economic growth. In May 2017 Limerick City & County Council (LC&CC) appointed EY-DKM Economic Advisory Services (formerly DKM Economic Consultants) with MCJ Lemagnen Associates Ltd. (MCJ Lemagnen) to undertake an Economic Profile report of Limerick city (including suburbs as defined by the CSO) and county.

    The Armstrong Papers P6 Part I Armstrong of Moyaliffe Castle, County Tipperary University of Limerick Library and Information Services University of Limerick Special Collections The Armstrong Papers Reference Code: IE 2135 P6 Title: The Armstrong Papers Dates of Creation: 1662-1999 Level of Description: Sub-Fonds Extent and Medium: 133 boxes, 2 outsize items (2554 files) CONTEXT Name of Creator(s): The Armstrong family of Moyaliffe Castle, county Tipperary, and the related families of Maude of Lenaghan, county Fermanagh; Everard of Ratcliffe Hall, Leicestershire; Kemmis of Ballinacor, county Wicklow; Russell of Broadmead Manor, Kent; and others. Biographical History: The Armstrongs were a Scottish border clan, prominent in the service of both Scottish and English kings. Numerous and feared, the clan is said to have derived its name from a warrior who during the Battle of the Standard in 1138 lifted a fallen king onto his own horse with one arm after the king’s horse had been killed under him. In the turbulent years of the seventeenth century, many Armstrongs headed to Ireland to fight for the Royalist cause. Among them was Captain William Armstrong (c. 1630- 1695), whose father, Sir Thomas Armstrong, had been a supporter of Charles I throughout the Civil War and the Commonwealth rule, and had twice faced imprisonment in the Tower of London for his support for Charles II. When Charles II was restored to power, he favoured Captain William Armstrong with a lease of Farneybridge, county Tipperary, in 1660, and a grant of Bohercarron and other lands in county Limerick in 1666. In 1669, William was appointed Commissioner for Payroll Tax, and over the next ten years added to his holdings in the area, including the former lands of Holy Cross Abbey and the lands of Ballycahill.

And so, a couple of years ago, we decided to find out as much as possible about one of Limerick's old Halls. The street We get asked all the time ' where does the street name come from' as it's difficult both to spell and pronounce if you have not heard it before. In 1760, Limerick was proclaimed an open city and the demolition of the medieval walls began. Around this time the building of the Georgian town commenced. The main leaders connected with the movement to create Newtown Pery were Edmund Sexton Pery, who owned most of the land, his brother-in-law, Sir Henry Hartstonge, the Russells and the Arthurs. Hartstonge Street is named after Bruff born Henry, a Irish politician, and his wife Lady Lucy Hartstonge, who was renowned for her charitable work in Limerick including the founding of St. John's Hospital. The streetscape Pre 1850, there was no definition between Upper and Lower - it was simply called Hartstonge Street. Upper Hartstonge Street, like Barrington Street and Upper Mallow Street, housed the wealthier families. Lower Hartstonge Street, which was sandwiched between Newtown Pery and the river, presented more a modest housing arrangement. There were families living here as well as boarding houses for unmarried workers and trades people.
