Theirs were, with some exceptions, supporting rather than leading roles. In the feudal period, they were knights, not earls. Afterwards, with occasional exceptions such as Major General Patrick Purcell, who died fighting Cromwell,3 they tended to be colonels and captains rather than generals. They served as sheriffs and seneschals rather than Irish viceroys or lords deputy.

National monuments in State care include those which are in the ownership or guardianship of the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government (DEHLG). Other owners of national monuments are empowered under Section 5 of the National Monuments Act (1930) to appoint the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government as guardian of such monuments.

  • Thomas Duncan: Biographical Details
    WHO ARE THE IRISH? MIXING GAELS, VIKINGS, NORMANS & PLANTERS A SERIES OF FOUR WEBINARS INTRODUCTION This handout supports my recent series of four webinar lectures delivered in early February, 2021. Given the length of period covered, from c. 800 to 1800, a prose introduction is beyond the scope of this document. Those seeking to explore further the history which unites ‘our shared island spaces’ will, I hope, find adequate material in the Reading List below. Lists of images for all four lectures are also included, primarily to aid those who are unfamiliar with Irish place names, or wish to look at the lectures a second time. Please note I am unable to supply OS grid references for each site. READING LIST This reading list is not meant to be comprehensive - Irish historic studies is already an over-populated territory. So, I have confined my suggestions to those areas which reflect the material covered in the lectures, based on my own interests and reading. For the early period of Irish archaeology and history, please refer to the reading list which accompanied the initial pair of lectures on Ancient Ireland. If you have not already received this reading list (it has been sent out ONLY to those who registered for the first series of lectures) copies can be forwarded via email to anyone who is interested. Books mentioned will not always be in print so you may need to resort to a ‘google’ search to track down a particular title. Those marked with an asterisk * are also available in paperback. I am afraid I am not able to supply ISBN details for books included as it would take up too much time.
