For ferry times contact 086 8515003/087 9004115 The doughnut effect A recent analysis of this area revealed that 10% of homes on Clare Island and Inishturk are holiday homes whilst the number on the stretch of road leading down to Roonah Pier is well above the 10%. It is closer to 50%. These holiday homes are a mixture of purpose-built and inherited family homes. The resident population on the streets of Louisburgh has dropped in the last twenty years, whilst the immediate surrounds have been increased as families move into the available housing. This is the doughnut effect: hole in the middle and full all around. Whilst it is wonderful that there is a doughnut, the streets are in need of some jam and cream. It is uplifting to see the newly painted red and green colours on the building beside the Gala, and to know that there is a new business about to open there in the next few weeks. It is heart-warming to watch (and participate in) the renovation of two other buildings for the HQ, another place for people to stop into and pass the time of day. Energy exists, buildings are there, people have ideas. In Berlin, the empty buildings are used on a Pop-Up basis: for a six-week period to try out an idea and then they close/start over. In Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin the Council have adopted and adapted this form of business as it is ideal for the recessionary times. Perhaps there is room in Louisburgh for a similar attitude? Time will tell.. Holiday in Lecanvey Lecanvey, or Leac an Anmhaidh has been a traditional holiday village for generations and is looking forward to a large influx of visitors again this year. Families have enjoyed their annual holidays in Lecanvey under the foot of Croagh Patrick in a variety of accommodation over the years ranging from camping and caravaning in Lecanvey camping site to bed and breakfast and self catering accommodation available in the village. Lecanvey village is 5 miles from Louisburgh on R335, and you cannot help but notice the traditionally black and white painted pub on the roadside on your right as you travel towards Westport. Here Therese and Ger and family run Stauntons bar where you can enjoy a nice quiet pint and a toasted sandwich. Peggy's as it is locally known has been in the same family for at least 5 generations and although pub trade has decreased over the last few years Stauntons has a friendly ambiance where local and tourist clientele happily mingle and chat about the weather current affairs and enjoy the craic. Traditional music sessions often turn into a sing song so it’s always a bonus when you can join in and sing or recite your party piece. What better way to unwind... This summer Therese is planning to establish a regular guided walk around the village which is at its best this time of year, pointing out many local archaeological features of the landscape. Occasional guided climbs of Croagh Patrick are also an option ascending the Reek from the west side which is a traditional local route. The benefits of climbing from this side are a less crowded pathway, panoramic views and peace and quiet. The climb should never be undertaken in misty conditions when the cloud cover can obscure the path. Activities in Lecanvey this summer include Art Classes on Tuesdays at 7pm with Chris Harper at his studio in Kilsallagh, Zumba classes in Lecanvey Community Centre on Mondays at 7pm.Pier jumping at Lecanvey pier daily [when the tide is in!] Pier Angling is also very popular with various species of fish available at the pier if you are keen fishing enthusiast. Crab fishing at the pier is a real favourite with young visitors where a simple rind of bacon can be used and reused to lure crabs on to your line .Its all great simple fun and keeps children entertained for hours. Bertra strand is a short walk from the village which boasts Irelands only tombola, and is a great place to view Croagh Patrick and Clare Island as well as the smaller islands of Clew Bay. Mass times in St Patrick’s church Lecanvey 10am Monday to Thursday Friday 7.30pm Sat. 7.30 pm and Sunday 11.30am. Confessions at 12 midday on Saturdays.

  • West Coast, Ireland
    West Coast, Ireland (Slyne Head to Erris Head) GPS Coordinates of location: Latitude: From 53° 23’ 58.02”N to 54° 18’ 26.96”N Longitude: From 010° 13” 59.87”W to 009° 59’ 51.98”W Degrees Minutes Seconds (e.g. 35 08 34.231212) as used by all emergency marine services Description of geographic area covered: The region covered is the wild and remote west coast of Ireland, from Slyne Head north of Galway to Erris Head south of Sligo. It includes Killary Harbour, Clew Bay, Black Sod Bay, Belmullet, and the islands of Inishbofin, Inishturk, Clare, Achill, and the Inishkeas. It is an area of incomparable charm and natural beauty where mountains come down to the sea unspoilt by development. It is also an area without marinas, or easy access to marine services. Self-sufficiency is absolutely necessary, along with careful navigation around a rocky lee coastline in prevailing westerlies. A vigilant watch for approach of frequent Atlantic gales must be kept. Inishbofin is reported to be the most common stopover of visiting foreign-flagged yachts in Ireland, of which there are very few on the West coast. Best time to visit is May-September. 1 24 May 2015 Port officer’s name: Services available in area covered: Daria & Alex Blackwell • There are no marinas in the west of Ireland between Galway and Killybegs in Donegal, so services remain difficult to access. Haul out facilities are now available in Kilrush on the Shannon River and elsewhere by special arrangement with crane operators. • Visitor Moorings (Yellow buoy, 15 tons): Achill / Kildavnet Pier, Achill Bridge, Blacksod, Clare Island, Inishturk, Rosmoney (Clew Bay), Leenane.

  • Top 55" Deposits in Ireland"
    EXPLORATION AND MINING DIVISION IRELAND ZINC • LEAD • COPPER • GOLD • SILVER • BARYTES • GYPSUM • COAL • DOLOMITE • TALC THE “TOP 555”5” DEPOSITS Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources The Mining Heritage Ireland is richly endowed with a diversity of mineral deposits, with a mining heritage extending for over 4,000 years. Although much of the information is shrouded in time, enough remains to show that the country was firmly established as a significant metal producer at several distinct stages in history. During the Final Neolithic/Early Bronze Age (c.2400-1500 B.C.) Irish mines were an important source of copper, while alluvial gold may have been used for some of the abundant gold ornaments of this period. The 16th and 17th centuries were a time of extensive iron production, while the 19th century saw continuous copper, lead and silver output for over 70 years, as well as a “gold rush” around the start of the century. And finally, the period since the 1960s have seen Ireland enjoy the status of a world-ranked producer of zinc, lead and barite, and become one of the most promising exploration territories in Europe. Historical Record The first evidence of mineral deposits as an important resource in Ireland after the Stone Age is to be found in Bronze Age times (c.2300-500 B.C.) or a little earlier. Recent research has established that primitive copper mines were worked in SW Ireland in the period c.2400-1500 B.C., with the bulk of those dated during the period c.1700-1500 B.C.
