    Establishment of Groundwater Source Protection Zones Martinstown, Ballinvreena Water Supply Scheme December 2010 Prepared by: OCM With contributions from: Dr. Robert Meehan, Ms. Jenny Deakin, Mr. David Ball And with assistance from: Limerick County Council l v Environmental Protection Agency Martinstown Ballinvreena Groundwater SPZ Project description Since the 1980’s, the Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI) has undertaken a considerable amount of work developing Groundwater Protection Schemes throughout the country. Groundwater Source Protection Zones are the surface and subsurface areas surrounding a groundwater source, i.e. a well, wellfield or spring, in which water and contaminants may enter groundwater and move towards the source. Knowledge of where the water is coming from is critical when trying to interpret water quality data at the groundwater source. The Source Protection Zone also provides an area in which to focus further investigation and is an area where protective measures can be introduced to maintain or improve the quality of groundwater. The project “Establishment of Groundwater Source Protection Zones”, led by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), represents a continuation of the GSI’s work. A CDM/TOBIN/OCM project team has been retained by the EPA to establish Groundwater Source Protection Zones at monitoring points in the EPA’s National Groundwater Quality Network. A suite of maps and digital GIS layers accompany this report and the reports and maps are hosted on the EPA and GSI websites (www.epa.ie; www.gsi.ie). i Environmental Protection Agency Martinstown Ballinvreena Groundwater SPZ TABLE OF CONTENTS 1 Introduction .............................................................................................................. 1 2 Methodology ............................................................................................................. 1 3 Location, Site Description and Well Head Protection ..........................................

  • Chapter 11 Clarecastle – Port & Fishing
    Chapter 11 Clarecastle – Port & Fishing The Port of Clare, Clarecastle Port Shipping Records,Clarecastle Quay,a Clarecastle Sailing Ship Eric Shaw Fishing on the Fergus Boland’s Rock Fish-traps – located about five miles down-river from Clarecastle. photograph taken by Eric Shaw As long as the River Fergus has flowed through the parish and that people have populated its banks, the river has been a source of transport and a source of food in the form of fish. In 2004, a uniquely well-preserved complex of medieval fish-traps at Boland’s Rock* was investigated by a team from Galway University. Local fishermen had been aware of these traps that became visible at low tide but this was the first time that the wooden traps were scientifically examined. Radiocarbon dating of the timber used in the traps showed that they dated back to the late 11th to late 12th century AD. These traps may have been set by Augustian monks from Clare Abbey and Canon Island to provide food for the large number of monks and students that are linked to the abbeys. *shown on maps as Boorland’s Rocks but known locally as Boland’s Rock Net-fishing on the Fergus The boat used by the Clarecastle net-fishermen for many years was known as a gandalow, a boat design used in the Fergus and Shannon Estuaries. The drawing above of the Quay shows a gandalow on the river. The boat is keelless and with the spring in the floor, it is ideal to manoeuvre in shallow water or over the mud flats.

  • Origins in Roscommon County, Ireland
    County Roscommon, Ireland (Topographical Dictionary of Ireland - Samuel Lewis, London, 1837) William Manion #2 was our ancestor who came to America from Ireland. His father, William Mannion #1, died in Ireland. His mother, Catherine (Hanley) Mannion, remarried John Coffay in Ireland and had more children. William Manion #2 and his Coffay family emigrated to Baltimore, Maryland in 1853. They came from County Roscommon, Ireland. The Roman Catholic parish registers of Strokestown and Roscommon & Kilteevan contain records for these people that correspond with church and civil records in Baltimore, Maryland. Cloontimullan Some of the records name the townland, Cloontimullan, as the origin of the Mannion/Manion & Coffay families. Cloontimullan (aka Cloontymullan) is in the Roman Catholic parish of Roscommon & Kilteevan, in County Roscommon. http://manionmannioncoffaycoyle.com/ 1 Catherine Hanly(Hanley) and William Mannion #1 William Manion #2 refers to our ancestor who came to Baltimore, Maryland from Ireland. William Mannion #1 refers to his father, who probably died in Ireland. William Manion #2 emigrated to Baltimore, Maryland, USA, with his mother and siblings in 1853. He was born in Cloontimullan, County Roscommon, Ireland in 1837. He died in Baltimore, Maryland in June 1916. His Maryland death certificate gives his parents’ names as William Mannion & Catherine Hanley. That information made it possible to trace his origins to a place called Cloontimullan (aka Cloontymullan) in Kilteevan Parish, County Roscommon, Ireland. The Tithe Applotment Books The Tithe Applotment Books were surveys of landholders in Ireland between 1823 and 1837 who paid a tithe (tax) to the Church of Ireland (Anglican). In 1833, the Tithe Applotment Books of Ireland listed Will Mannion #1 as a landholder in Cloontymullan (aka Cloontimullan & Cloontymullen).
