It is an attempt to demythify and break from that seemingly inherent Irish trait of finding some sort of dig­ nity in disaster. The triumph of failure has beatified its martyrs in stone and in print, in songs and poems regardless of their human weaknesses. Often we are confined to those centrifugal forces but the rebellion papers give us an insight into the world of the faceless For My Family masses. Paschal and Kathleen The introduction provides an insight into the politics of the last Paschal and Margaret decade of the centul)' and an analysis of the Defenders and United and in memol)' of Irishmen within this context. Chapter one is a brief note on the DARWIN - Christy Dowling (Kyle). topography of Kildare and its potential as a centre of rebellion, as well as evidence of Defenderism prior to 1797 and 1 798. The sec­ "It's better to die with a pike in my hand ond chapter primarily discusses the role of Lord Edward and while than be shot like a dog at my work understanding his weaknesses attempts to revitalise his role.

Chapter three examines the effect of the milital)' repression (Tom Dowling - Kildare 1997) prior to the outbreak of rebellion which was a crucial factor in pro­ voking a rising in Kildare. The rebellion itself is analysed in chapter four and I hope I have provided an authentic account which was Front cover sometimes difficult to salvage from amid the various conflicting Cruickshank's depiction of attack on Prosperous information. The final chapter examines the Rebellion Papers more (w. H. Maxwell, History of the Irish Rebellion in 1798) closely in an effort to understand the reason for a rebellion in Kildare. So much work has been done on this period and yet these papers offer an opportunity to envisage the paranoia of the loyalists "All that delirium of the brave" and confusion and desolation of the rebels, first hand. The archaeol­ is a quotation from "September 1913" by W. B. Yeats ogist meticulously records his findings and analyses them within the context of known supportable material.

Pap. 620-38-51 74 7 6 INTRODUCfION The Ghost of History Past Fraught with anomaly. ignorance and inconsistency. Ireland in the eighteenth century humbles the historian in his search for definitive truth. This is never more self-evident than in chronicling the embry­ onic politicization of the hitherto benign masses which. apparently. prematurely exploded into national consciousness in the 1798 rebellion. If the historian has a hunger for acquiring knowledge he adversely retains a passion to disseminate it multifariously. con­ tritely obvious in the enormous outpourings on emergent mass politicization in the eighteenth century. Incontrovertibly we are drawn. like bees to honey. to the matrix. to the latter decades. The 1770s witnessed the emergence of firm Castle government with the end of the Undertaker system under Townshend and Harcourt' and conversely a subsequent convolution in the political framework due to the American War of Independence. the war with France. the rise of the Volunteers and politics in London.' Newfound strength and arrogance in Opposition politics led to the abeyance of primal "garrison" urges and the first consequential Catholic Relief Act in 1778. though it undoubtedly owed much of its existence to British intervention and the entry into war with France.' The 1780s succumb to the success of 1782. the aphorism of leg­ islative independence. followed by the reductio ad absurdum of the marriage of reform and further Catholic relief.

Her drapery shop, in the centre of Dublin St., was to many of us, children at the time, the bulwark of Republican sentiment. There we bought the little celluloid badges of the Tricolour. In the years of struggle that followed, the badges were inset with pictures of the leaders. It may seem a small thing now to have displayed publicly a whole range of national emblems. But in the context of the times it was bravery and patriotism of a very high order.

  • Chapter 10: Cultural Heritage
    EIAR Kilcumber Bridge 110kV substation Chapter 10 | Cultural Heritage 10 CULTURAL HERITAGE 10.1 INTRODUCTION This archaeological and wider cultural heritage chapter presents the results of an assessment of the impacts of a proposed development known as the Kilcumber Bridge 110kV substation, situated c.6km south west of Edenderry in Co. Offaly (Figure 10-1). The assessment was undertaken on behalf of Malachy Walsh and Partners, (MWP) and forms a constituent element of a wider Environmental Impact Assessment Report (EIAR) with regard to a planning application to construct the proposed development. The proposed development consists of a 110kV substation and grid connection, refer to Chapter 2 Description of Proposed Development for full details. The assessment is a combination of desk-based research and the results of field walking to identify areas of archaeological / historic architectural / and wider cultural significance, likely to be impacted by the proposed substation. A description of the potential impacts is presented, and a number of mitigation measures are recommended where appropriate. Figure 10-1: Kilcumber Bridge 110kV substation location. 10.2 SCOPE OF ASSESSMENT 10.2.1 General This assessment report essentially comprises of three main parts viz: - (1) desk-based research of a 1.5 km radius study area encompassing the proposed development; (2) archaeological inspection of the location site of the proposed development; (3) mitigation of archaeological and wider cultural heritage impacts. 10.2.2 Statement on Limitations and Difficulties Encountered No particular difficulties were encountered in preparing the assessment.
