We, the Commissioners of Public Works in Ireland being of the opinion that the execution of arterial drainage works is expedient in respect of a part of the River Suir at Clonmel in the counties of Tipperary and Waterford for the purpose of preventing or substantially reducing the periodical localised flooding of lands in the area of that watercourse or such part or of improving by drainage lands in that area, have prepared a scheme to be known as the River Suir (Clonmel East) Drainage Scheme for the execution of such works, particulars of which scheme are shown in the Schedules, Maps and Section Drawings hereunto annexed. The scheme has been prepared for the purpose of preventing or substantially reducing localised flooding. The waters and watercourses proposed to be dealt with are shown in BLUE colour on the drawings. The lands to be drained or otherwise improved are shown in YELLOW colour on the maps. These are the lands that could be subject to flooding by a flood of 1 in 100 year return period. The chainages in metres along each channel are also shown on the drawings.

  • Din Kennedy, Coolcroo, Two Mile Borris
    Din Kennedy by Michael O’Dwyer Din Kennedy was born on 26 June 1913 at Coolcroo, Two-Mile-Borris, County Tipperary. He was the fourth son of Con Kennedy, a farmer, and Mary Anne Kennedy (née Campion). His parents got married in Gortnahoe church on 21 February 1909. On the Kennedy family in Jimmy Fogarty’s excellent book on Moycarkey Coolcroo Athletic Club, A Tipperary athletic club: 70 years of athletics in a County Tipperary parish, he started with, ‘In 1936, the Kennedy family, together with their close neighbours, the Healys, became the founding members of Coolcroo Athletic Club. All the male members of this family were known throughout the county as great hurlers and athletes, having captured All-Ireland medals in both disciplines. In fact, their Uncle Tom Kennedy was a member of the historic Two-Mile-Borris team, County Tipperary, Munster and All-Ireland Hurling Champions of 1900.’ When Coolcroo won the Irish junior cross-country title in 1937 for the first time one of the team’s six scorers was Din’s brother Tom Kennedy (1912–1962). Two years later, in 1939, when Coolcroo regained the Irish junior cross-country title Din Kennedy was a scoring member, and he was also a scoring member when Coolcroo won the Irish junior cross-country title in 1948. His best year though was in 1946 when he was a scoring member of the Tipperary junior cross-country team that won the Irish inter-county title that year and the following month he was a scoring member of the Tipperary senior cross-country team that won the Irish inter-county title.

  • History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary
    History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary. ‘Introduction’ What better way to begin an account of a Tipperary town than by referring to the following words of a poem called ‘Tipperary‘.In these lines, the poet ‘ Eva of the Nation‘ who was one of the Kellys of Killeen, Portumna,wrote: ‘O come for a while among us,and give us a friendly hand, And you‘ll see that old Tipperary is a loving and gladsome land; From Upper to Lower Ormond bright welcome and smiles will spring, On the plains of Tipperary,the stranger is like a king?‘ Yes, I think the words ring true,I`m sure, for us and about us,natives of this part of Irish soil?? It is about one particular spot ‘on the plains of Tipperary‘ that I wish to write, namely my home parish of Borrisokane?? . So I turn again to verse, which so often suggests things that mere prose cannot? In a book of poetry, ‘The Spirit of Tipperary‘ published many years ago by the Nenagh Guardian,we find a poem by Dermot F ?Gleeson who for many years was District Justice in Nenagh.He wrote under the pen-name ‘Mac Liag‘ . He writes as if from the top of Lisgorrif Hill looking down on the broad expanse of the two Ormonds with Lough Derg bordering them to the left? .The poem is simply called, ‘The place where I was born’ ‘O’er hill and mountain, vale and town, My gaze now wanders up and down, Anon my heart is filled with pride, Anon with memory’s gentler tide ‘ Of sorrow, until through them all The twilight whispers softly call From upland green and golden corn “It is the place where you were born”.

I had just finished my school-going days and had commenced to assist my father in his hardware business in my native town of Carrick-on-Suir. There was then no unit of the Irish Volunteers in Carrick-on-Suir.. There were, however, in the town a. few nationally minded people, such as Dr. Murphy, Maurice Hickey and some members of the Dowley families, who had broken away from the Redmond ite Party and the Irish National Volunteers when the split took place in that body a few years before, but, as far as I am no effort was made to establish an aware, Irish Volun6eer company. On the other hand, Carrick-on-Suir held amongst the towns of Ireland the unenviable distinction of, in proportion to its population, giving the second highest percentage of recruits to the British Army.

  • The O'keeffes of Glenough by Robert O'keeffe Nora O'keeffe Was Born In
    The O’Keeffes of Glenough by Robert O’Keeffe Nora O’Keeffe was born in Glenough, Rossmore Co. Tipperary in 1885, and was one of 12 children. The family were steeped in the nationalist tradition and her father, Dan, was a Nationalist Justice of Peace and a respected nationalist figure locally. There are uncorroborated stories of involvement in the Fenian outbreak of 1867 (Fr Denis Matthew O’Keeffe’s history). Nora emigrated to the US in 1909 and worked as a typist/stenographer. She appears to have returned to Ireland in 1918/9 along with her brother Patrick. During her time in the US she appears to have met Margaret Skinnider with whom it is thought she had a life long same sex relationship. (McAuliffe) She became active with Cumann na mBan and was among those listed in Bureau of Military History statements as having dispersed the gelignite from the Sologheadbeg ambush across the Brigade area. The younger members of the family seem to have immersed themselves in the national struggle at this time. This was probably due in no small part to the presence in the locality of staunch Republicans such as Fr Matt Ryan of Knockavilla, Eamonn O’Duibhir of Ballagh and the Irish teacher, Padraig Breathnach. The house at Glenough was used as a safe house and also played host to brigade meetings. The “Big Four” of Robinson, Breen, Treacy and Hogan were regular visitors as was Ernie O’Malley. O’Malley mentions the family in his autobiography “On another man’s wound” and also in his book “Raids and Rallies”.
