SHEET NUMBER 56 GSI Bedrock 1:100,000 Sheet No. 16 Outline Site Description The Glendalough Valley is a deep glacial valley in the central Wicklow Mountains. The mine site within it sits at the head of the Upper Lake, where siltation has led to development of a wetland. ‘Van Diemen’s’ Land is an isolated mine site further up the valley, on high ground. Geological System/Age and Primary Rock Type The bedrock is Lugnaquillia Granodiorite, part of the Lugnaquillia Pluton which is one of the five plutons that comprise the late-Caledonian (405 Ma) Leinster Granite batholith. The granite is cut by slightly younger quartz veins containing lead and zinc mineralization. The contact between the granite and schists of the Lower Palaeozoic Maulin Formation runs through the site immediately east of the mine area. The valley itself and the glacial features within it date from the last Ice Age. Main Geological or Geomorphological Interest Glendalough is a marvellous example of a glaciated U-shaped valley, with oversteepened cliff sides and a flat floor. At the mouth of the glen where it meets Glendasan is a delta, which formed at the end of the last Ice Age in a lake that reached a higher level than either of the present lakes.

Wicklow 11 May 2019 FINAL REPORT Foreword This safety investigation is exclusively of a technical nature and the Final Report reflects the determination of the AAIU regarding the circumstances of this occurrence and its probable causes. In accordance with the provisions of Annex 131 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, Regulation (EU) No 996/20102 and Statutory Instrument No. 460 of 20093, safety investigations are in no case concerned with apportioning blame or liability. They are independent of, separate from and without prejudice to any judicial or administrative proceedings to apportion blame or liability. The sole objective of this safety investigation and Final Report is the prevention of accidents and incidents. Accordingly, it is inappropriate that AAIU Reports should be used to assign fault or blame or determine liability, since neither the safety investigation nor the reporting process has 1 been undertaken for that purpose. Extracts from this Report may be published providing that the source is acknowledged, the material is accurately reproduced and that it is not used in a derogatory or misleading context. 1 Annex 13: International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), Annex 13, Aircraft Accident and Incident Investigation. 2 Regulation (EU) No 996/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 October 2010 on the investigation and prevention of accidents and incidents in civil aviation. 3 Statutory Instrument (SI) No. 460 of 2009: Air Navigation (Notification and Investigation of Accidents, Serious Incidents and Incidents) Regulations 2009.

  • Robb Report Luggala
    Journeys: Artists' Residence April 01, 2006 The Mercedes has bottomed out. More speed might have propelled the vehicle over the hill on this rolling Irish cart road, but the undercarriage now sits squarely on top of a grassy protuberance, while the wheels spin frantically in the air. The driver, Garech Browne, squire of the land, member of the Guinness family, writer, champion and guardian of Irish lore and poetry, founder of Claddagh Records, and friend and host to Bono and Nelson Mandela, is completely nonplussed as he exits the vehicle to survey the situation. A dandy of note, the 66-year-old Browne is dressed in a perfectly fitted beige three-piece wool suit. His ponytail and long white beard remain untussled in the stiff wind of this gray October morning in County Wicklow. Top photo: The home of a record company founder, Luggala is furnished with a variety of musical instruments, including Bottom photo: this Irish harp. Bottom photograph by Alen Macweeney. (Click images to enlarge) While Browne assesses the damage, I take in the view of the landscape from my perch upon the car’s boot. Some 20,000 years ago, the glaciers slid through here and carved out a broad valley that runs from north to south. The steep granite cliffs of a mountain called the Fancy rise to the west of our location in the valley. It takes its name from the Irish word foinse, which means source, a reference to the beginning of the river Cloghoge, whose waters run through the valley. The river feeds into Lough Tay, which, according to legend, is bottomless, its depths reaching to the kingdom of the leprechauns.
