  • Buses in the Burren 2014 a Study of the Impacts and Issues
    Buses in the Burren 2014 A Study of the Impacts and Issues January 2015 Funded by 1 Introduction This study on bus and coach tourism has been commissioned by the Burren & Cliffs of Moher Geopark and has been funded jointly under TransTourism, the Northern Periphery Interreg IVB Programme and the EU LIFE + GeoparkLIFE Programme. The Burren is one of Europe’s most unique landscapes whose landscape and culture attracts increasing visitor numbers each year. The astonishing character of this karst region has evolved through a powerful combination of geology, ecology, archaeology, agriculture, history, heritage, commerce, creativity and community. These rich and diverse influences infuse the area with a haunting, spectacular and world-unique beauty. Tourism is a valuable source of income for many businesses and families in the region. The quality of the tourism product and the care with which it is offered are crucial attractions for visitors. It’s clear to all that tourism brings challenges as well as opportunities and that the unique natural assets of the region need to be protected and cared for. To ensure the protection and sustainable use of this natural resource, a co-ordinated approach to visitor management and environmental protection has been underway for over a decade implementing the principle of ecotourism in the area and linking environmental, community and tourism interests with statutory agencies and business operators. These efforts have been accelerate since the award of UNESCO recognised Global Geopark status in 2011. In order to plan more effectively for sustainable tourism practices in the area, the Burren & Cliffs of Moher Geopark have commissioned this study to establish baseline information on the extent and impacts of coach tourism in the area.

  • Carrucan Origins
    CARRUCAN ORIGINS This document, put together by Jim Martin, is a compilation of material in two reports from the Clare Heritage Centre Corofin, Co Clare, Ireland. The first was commissioned by Mick Gooch [Reference 1989No 593], written by Naiose Cleary, the second by Antoinette O'Brien [Reference 1995 Ref 1`4060], successive Directors of the Centre. Carrucan is a very rare surname. Seeing that the Carrucan name is so rare, naturally, the question frequently comes to the fore - where did they originate! I find a Denis Kierucan and Anne Halloran had a son John baptised in St. Mary’s Parish, Limerick City on 8/5/1787. I have no doubt but Anne Halloran was from East Clare - Hallorans were a sub-sept of the McNamaras. On to Tulla in East Clare, the capital of the McNamara homeland, and I find one Mary Kerucan, baptised on 17/10/1819, to Michael Kerucan and Catherine McNamara. In the post-Cromwellian land settlement 1652-1658, a prominent section of the McNamara clan were transplanted from East Clare into the North Clare area of Ballyvaughan and Doolin. I am convinced that the Carrucans came to that district with the McNamaras, but they never propagated there like other families. Today, when people in Clare mention the name ‘Carrucan’ they immediately associate it with the Fanore area. LAND RECORDS The earliest available records which we have for the Ballyvaughan-Fanore area are the Tithe Applotment Land Records of the mid-1820’s. Tithe was a tax on all agricultural land (originally a tenth of the produce) and it was paid by people of all religious denominations towards the upkeep of the Established Church of that day (Church of Ireland).

The Burren uplands play host to over 70% of Ireland’s native flora, hundreds of burial sites, stone forts and ancient ecclesiastical sites. It is a key flagship for the Irish environment, remarkably rich, diverse and intact. However, the Burren is a landscape that depends very much on farming activity for the retention of its rich heritage. For over six thousand years, farmers have shaped the Burren. In much the same way, the unique challenges presented by karst landscape of the Burren have shaped use of the land and evoked distinctive agricultural responses. Many of these land management traditions are now at risk, as the balance that evolved between farming activity and the environment of the Burren over many millennia is being threatened by the rate and scale of recent changes in the agricultural sector. Sustainable solutions to redress this balance must now be found, and these solutions must be acceptable to both farmers and conservationists.

  • The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    THE LIST of CHURCH OF IRELAND PARISH REGISTERS A Colour-coded Resource Accounting For What Survives; Where It Is; & With Additional Information of Copies, Transcripts and Online Indexes SEPTEMBER 2021 The List of Parish Registers The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers was originally compiled in-house for the Public Record Office of Ireland (PROI), now the National Archives of Ireland (NAI), by Miss Margaret Griffith (1911-2001) Deputy Keeper of the PROI during the 1950s. Griffith’s original list (which was titled the Table of Parochial Records and Copies) was based on inventories returned by the parochial officers about the year 1875/6, and thereafter corrected in the light of subsequent events - most particularly the tragic destruction of the PROI in 1922 when over 500 collections were destroyed. A table showing the position before 1922 had been published in July 1891 as an appendix to the 23rd Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records Office of Ireland. In the light of the 1922 fire, the list changed dramatically – the large numbers of collections underlined indicated that they had been destroyed by fire in 1922. The List has been updated regularly since 1984, when PROI agreed that the RCB Library should be the place of deposit for Church of Ireland registers. Under the tenure of Dr Raymond Refaussé, the Church’s first professional archivist, the work of gathering in registers and other local records from local custody was carried out in earnest and today the RCB Library’s parish collections number 1,114. The Library is also responsible for the care of registers that remain in local custody, although until they are transferred it is difficult to ascertain exactly what dates are covered.
