  • 1.1 Employment Sectors
    1.1 EMPLOYMENT SECTORS To realise the economic potential of the Gateway and identified strategic employment centres, the RPGs indicates that sectoral strengths need be developed and promoted. In this regard, a number of thematic development areas have been identified, the core of which are pivoted around the main growth settlements. Food, Tourism, Services, Manufacturing and Agriculture appear as the primary sectors being proffered for Meath noting that Life Sciences, ICT and Services are proffered along the M4 corridor to the south and Aviation and Logistics to the M1 Corridor to the east. However, Ireland’s top 2 exports in 2010, medical and pharmaceutical products and organic chemicals, accounted for 59% of merchandise exports by commodity group. It is considered, for example, that Navan should be promoted for medical products noting the success of Welch Allyn in particular. An analysis has been carried out by the Planning Department which examined the individual employment sectors which are presently in the county and identified certain sectoral convergences (Appendix A). This basis of this analysis was the 2011 commercial rates levied against individual premises (top 120 rated commercial premises). The analysis excluded hotels, retail, public utilities public administration (Meath County Council, OPW Trim and other decentralized Government Departments) along with the HSE NE, which includes Navan Hospital. The findings of this analysis were as follows: • Financial Services – Navan & Drogheda (essentially IDA Business Parks & Southgate Centre). • Industrial Offices / Call Centres / Headquarters – Navan, Bracetown (Clonee) & Duleek. • Food and Meath Processing – Navan, Clonee and various rural locations throughout county. • Manufacturing – Oldcastle and Kells would have a particular concentrations noting that a number of those with addresses in Oldcastle are in the surrounding rural area.

  • 1 De Bello Becco
    De Bello Becco: a French foundation in the Boyne Valley Geraldine Stout Introduction This paper discusses the history of the little known French Cistercian foundation of de Bello Becco near Drogheda, and the role it played in the commercial development of the Boyne valley and in the international maritime trade during the medieval period. The paper also presents the results of a recent geophysical survey and sets out a course for future investigation of the site. Historical background The Cistercian foundation of de Bello Becco, also known as Beaubec, a daughter house of the convent of de Bello Becco in Normandy, France, was located in the townland of Bey More, Co. Meath (fig. 1, ITM 709546 772877) (St. John Brooks, 1953, 148; McCullen, 2011, 383). There is no known foundation date for this monastic site but a grant by Walter De Lacy to the church of SS Mary and Laurence of Beaubec and the monks residing there on the lands in Gillekeran has been dated to after 1215 (Dryburgh and Smith, 2006, 23). This includes a further grant of a burgage in Mornington (villa Marenari) along with the liberty of a boat for their own use, free from tolls, customs and demands and freedom to access Walter De Lacy’s lands to buy and sell merchandise. The placename Gillekeran suggests that this Cistercian foundation was on an earlier ecclesiastical site possibly associated with St Ciaran (www.monasticon.celt.dias.ie). The 1215 grant is alluded to in a confirmation grant by Henry III in 1235 (Sweetman, 1875, 341). Walter De Lacy bestowed this relatively small grant of land on the Cistercians for the good of his soul, and those of their relatives and ancestors.
