Toberpatrick Cemetery & Holy Well Ballinamuck Toberpatrick Cemetery & Holy Well Longford’s abundance of historic cemeteries and holy wells is a testament to the deep religious faith that has been held in the county since early-Christian times and before. Many graveyards are associated with ancient monastic settlements dating back 1500 years or so to the dawn of Christianity in Ireland. These were traditionally enclosed within circular spaces, the footprint of which can still be seen in the boundary walls to this day. Toberpatrick in Dromard parish is one such graveyard. Toberpatrick means ‘The Well of Patrick’ in the Irish language. Raised high above the surrounding ground level, the cemetery is encircled by a stone wall. The finely carved headstones include one dating from 1671, bearing the name ‘Jacobus Farrell’ – ‘Jacobus’ is Latin for James. It is one of the earliest inscribed gravestones in Co. Longford. The cemetery also contains the grave of General Blake, a leader of Franco-Irish forces at the Battle of Ballinamuck, who was executed following the battle. (Separate entry on the Battle of Ballinamuck). In 1911 an Irish priest in America, who originated from the area, paid to erect ‘Stations of the Cross’ in plaster of Paris. These are currently being restored by the community. A little farther down the laneway, next to the graveyard is the holy well itself, which is beautifully maintained by the local community. Also located here is an unusual ‘wishing tree’ or ‘prayer tree’, where scraps of material are tied to the branches and prayers are offered up for the souls of the departed. It is likely that this custom goes as far back as Ireland’s Celtic past. The burial ground and holy well are open to the public.

  • Social Housing Construction Projects Status Report Q3 2019
    Social Housing Construction Projects Status Report Q3 2019 December 2019 Rebuilding Ireland - Action Plan for Housing and Homelessness Quarter 3 of 2019: Social Housing Construction Status Report Rebuilding Ireland: Social Housing Targets Under Rebuilding Ireland, the Government has committed more than €6 billion to support the accelerated delivery of over 138,000 additional social housing homes to be delivered by end 2021. This will include 83,760 HAP homes, 3,800 RAS homes and over 50,000 new homes, broken down as follows: Build: 33,617; Acquisition: 6,830; Leasing: 10,036. It should be noted that, in the context of the review of Rebuilding Ireland and the refocussing of the social housing delivery programme to direct build, the number of newly constructed and built homes to be delivered by 2021 has increased significantly with overall delivery increasing from 47,000 new homes to over 50,000. This has also resulted in the rebalancing of delivery under the construction programme from 26,000 to 33,617 with acquisition targets moving from 11,000 to 6,830. It is positive to see in the latest Construction Status Report that 6,499 social homes are currently onsite. The delivery of these homes along with the additional 8,050 homes in the pipeline will substantially aid the continued reduction in the number of households on social housing waiting lists. These numbers continue to decline with a 5% reduction of households on the waiting lists between 2018 and 2019 and a 25% reduction since 2016. This progress has been possible due to the strong delivery under Rebuilding Ireland with 90,011 households supported up to end of Q3 2019 since Rebuilding Ireland in 2016.

  • County Longford Tourism Statement of Strategy and Work Programme
    2017- 2022 County Longford Tourism Statement of Strategy and Work Programme 1 County Longford Tourism Statement of Strategy and Work Programme 2017-2022 FOREWORD BY CATHAOIRLEACH AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE The County Tourism Strategy is prepared by Longford County Council working in partnership with County Longford Tourism Committee, the representative body of all tourism interests within County Longford. This Strategy sets out the overall Vision for tourism in County Longford over the next 5 years. To place Longford Tourism into context, Fáilte Ireland figures from 2013 show that while 772,000 tourists visited the Midlands Region in 2013 only 3% (22,000) visited County Longford. Therefore, the aim of this Strategy is to grow that percentage share by developing a thriving tourism sector in a planned, co-ordinated and cohesive manner as set out in this Strategy. It includes an ambitious programme of work to be undertaken within the County over that period in order to build local products and services that appeal to the marketplace. Centrally it also recognises the collective contributory role the County has to play in facilitating and supporting planned regional tourism development and complementing national tourism initiatives such as Ireland’s Ancient East. A review of the programme of work outlined and completed under previous strategies undertaken from 2010 to 2016, combined with an analysis of the current strength of the tourism sector within the County helped us to prioritise actions going forward. Since 2010, the County Longford Tourism Committee has refocused attention and energy on the potential for the tourism sector to be the key economic driver for County Longford.
