Inniskeen Spatial Plan DRAFT
Inniskeen Village Public Realm Spatial Plan (DRAFT) 12th Fenruary 2021 Contents 1. Introduction 2. Analysis 3. Concept 4. Key Spaces 5. Spatial Plan 6. Costs & Phasing Introduction Inniskeen Public Realm Spatial Plan has been prepared to inform the future development of public realm in and around Inniskeen for both locals and visitors alike. Spatial Plan Context Inniskeen is a small village located in Co.Monaghan, it is a historic settlement rich in archaeology, landscape features and architectural character, which inspired much of Patrick Kavanagh’s early work as a writer. There are two areas of commercial activity, at the road junction at McNello’s Pub which includes a public house, a petrol station, shop, and credit union. The second commercial centre is at the former railway station cluster including Magee’s public house and shop. Community uses dominate the centre of the village including the river walk, pitch and putt course, Community Centre, National School, Church of Ireland, Round Tower, Graveyard, and the Patrick Kavanagh Centre. Residential development occurs within the village centre to the north west and principally to the west of the village. Brief The Project Brief was to deliver a design which enhances the architectural quality of the sensitive streetscape, provides a high-quality concept and incorporates the following principles: • Reinvent the village as a place for people. • Development of pedestrian linkages between the Village, Kavanagh Centre and the Monaghan Way/ Railway Station. • Designation of key urban spaces for enhancement and specifi c urban design proposals. • Realisation of the potential of heritage and cultural assets for both locals and visitors. -

Collection List A19
Leabharlann Náisiúnta na hÉireann National Library of Ireland Collection List 19 Augustine Henry and Evelyn Gleeson Papers (MS 13,698) (Accession 2501) Partial calendar with brief description of letters sent by Augustine Henry and Evelyn Gleeson between 1879 and 1928. Letters are arranged according to year and date. 1 Introduction Henry, Augustine (1857–1930), botanical collector and dendrologist, was born on 2 July 1857 in Dundee, the first of six children of Bernard Henry (c.1825–1891) and Mary MacNamee. His father, at one time a gold-prospector in California and Australia, was a native of the townland of Tyanee on the west bank of the River Bann in co. Londonderry. Soon after Austin (as Augustine was called within his family) was born, the family moved to Cookstown, co. Tyrone, where his father was in business as a flax dealer and owned a grocery shop. Henry was educated at Cookstown Academy and in Queen's College, Galway. He studied natural sciences and philosophy, graduating with a first-class bachelor of arts degree and a gold medal in 1877. Henry then studied medicine at Queen's College, Belfast, where he obtained his master of arts degree in 1878. For a year he was in the London Hospital, and during a visit to Belfast in 1879, at the suggestion of one of his professors, he applied for a medical post in the Chinese imperial maritime customs service. Henry completed his medical studies as rapidly as he could, became a licentiate from the Royal College of Physicians in Edinburgh, passed the Chinese customs service examinations (for which he required a working knowledge of Chinese) and and left for China in the summer of 1881. -

The walking and cycling strategy for Castleblayney will help to develop the town with a network of safe and convenient walking and cycling routes that will improve the quality of life for everybody in the community by prioritising walking and cycling for travel to work, education, shopping and day to day business in the town whilst also providing high quality routes for leisure and fitness activities. 1.2 OBJECTIVES Consultation undertaken as part of this strategy has demonstrated the strong sense of community within Castleblayney and the pride in the existing facilities and potential future facilities in the area around Lough Muckno. There was a clear desire for improved walking and cycling provision for leisure and recreation and for access to key destinations such as the local schools and it was evident from the consultation that a multi- agency group consisting of local and countywide bodies should be developed to assist with the implementation of the strategy and to build relationships that will help promote walking and cycling within the town and identify future measures to contain the ongoing promotion of walking and cycling. -
