I want to commend the work of everyone involved – a real example of cross collaboration between our regional stakeholders. Given the significance of manufacturing to the Midlands, I hope this strategy will enable our Region to capitalise and leverage its strengths in this area to promote the Midlands as a place to live, work and invest in.” The action plan aims to realise the vision through the implementation of a suite of actions under four enabling themes: 1. Education, Training & Skills, 2. Research & Innovation, 3. Support infrastructure & networks, 4. Strengthening the manufacturing industry base - FDI and Indigenous sectors. Dr Anne Cusack, Chair or the Midlands Regional Enterprise Plan Steering Committee, commented that “the actions of the plan will support and enable regional enterprise to face the challenges which are being driven by a need for more sustainable practices and adoption of new technologies”. -

Durrow Final LC.Indd
DURROW ABBEY, CO. OFFALY CONSERVATION PLAN September 2005 DURROW ABBEY CO. OFFALY CONSERVATION PLAN by HOWLEY HARRINGTON ARCHITECTS In association with Cunnane Stratton Reynolds CRDS Ltd & Dr Christopher Moriarty This conservation plan was commissioned by the Office of Public Works for Durrow Abbey and the surrounding thirty-one hectares of land acquired by the state in 2003. Durrow Abbey, Co. Offaly is located eight kilometers to the north of Tullamore on the N52 road to Kilbeggan. The site was occupied in the early medieval period by a monastery, founded by St. Columcille in the sixth century. An Augustinian priory and Anglo- Norman castle were subsequently established during the twelfth century. After the dissolution of the monasteries in the sixteenth century the lands of the monastery went into private ownership. Much of the historic fabric that survives today in the designed landscape dates from the eighteenth and nine- teenth centuries focused on the Gothic Revival mansion of Durrow Abbey House. The evidence of so many layers of occupation on the site from the sixth century to the present day has created an historic place of exceptional cultural significance. The study boundary for the purposes of this plan is the land acquired by the Irish state in December 2003, however, the wider historical demesne has also been analysed to provide a more complete context for the archaeology and landscape design. The conservation plan was undertaken between November 2004 and May 2005 and provides a series of policies to inform the future conservation and management of the site. The conservation plan team was led by Howley Harrington Architects with input from Cunnane Stratton Reynolds, landscape and planning consultants, Cultural Resource Development Services Ltd, archaeologists and Dr. -
