    TRISKELE A newsletter of UWM’s Center for Celtic Studies Volume III, Issue II Samhain, 2004 Fáilte! Croeso! Mannbet! Kroesan! Fair Faa Ye! Welcome! Midwest ACIS Comes to Milwaukee The annual Midwest Regional meeting of the American Conference for Irish Studies (ACIS) was held on the UWM campus from Thursday, October 14, through Saturday, October 16. ACIS is an interdisciplinary scholarly organization founded in 1960. The conference was organized by José Lanters, Nancy Walczyk, and John Gleeson, under the auspices of the Center for Celtic Studies. On Thursday evening, the meeting kicked off in great style with a reception for the delegates in County Clare Irish Inn, with Irish music by Cé. In the course of the evening, James Liddy’s autobiography, The Doctor’s House (Salmon Press, 2004), fresh off the plane from Ireland, was launched, read from, toasted, sold, and sanctioned by the presence of emeritus archbishop Rembert Weakland, who had joined us for the occasion. Friday was a full day, with an exciting academic program of eight panels of four speakers each, on topics ranging from literature and history to music, art and politics. Professor Seamus Caulfield’s Frank Gleeson, Tom Kilroy, James Liddy, plenary lecture, “Neolithic Rocks to Riverdance,” accompanied by Jose Lanters, Josephine Craven, Joe slides and presented with verve and humor, gave his enthusiastic Dowling and Eamonn O’Neill audience an insight into the many and varied aspects of the archaeological excavations at Céide Fields in Co. Mayo. A reception at the Irish Cultural and Heritage Center, hosted by Charles Sheehan, Irish Consulate of Chicago, concluded the day, and included even more delights, in the form of James Fraher’s photographic images of Ireland, and enchanting music by Melanie O’Reilly and Seán O Nualláin.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION 1.1 Under the Local Government (Planning and Development) Acts, each Planning Authority is obliged to prepare a Development Plan for its functional area and review this Development Plan every five years. The Development Plan is the core document of the planning and development process. It presents Sligo County Council’s short to medium term view of the future development of the county and underpins the Council’s overall objectives of promoting and facilitating development, conserving the environment and achieving optimum use of resources. The Development Plan provides a framework for the physical development of the county and allows for sustainable, co-ordinated and orderly growth which respects the county’s natural, built and heritage resources. This County Development Plan reviews and updates the previous County Development Plan adopted by Sligo County Council in 1985. It takes account of the major developments that have occurred since 1985 in terms of population and economic trends, physical infrastructure, growth patterns and social deprivation. It recognises and sets out physical development objectives aimed at redressing the enduring problems of rural depopulation and disadvantage, dereliction, sporadic housing in scenic areas and service deficiencies. Every effort has been made to incorporate significant changes in legislation, Departmental guidelines, European Union directives and socio-economic factors impacting upon the development process; the intention is to present a concise, document which guides and informs the achievement of sustainable development1. Sligo County Council will have regard to the aims of Local Agenda 21 in the formulation and implementation of policies contained within the Development Plan2. Sligo County Council is committed to assisting the community in promoting environmental education, supporting local development group projects, providing local environmental information and engaging in public consultation procedures and partnerships.

  • Ballaghaderreen and the Mayo-Roscommon Boundary
    ..;.. BALLAGHADERREEN AND THE MAYO-ROSCOMMON BOUNDARY h Map Location of Ballaa:haderreen: In 1824 the British Parliament authorised a survey of the whole island of Ireland, at a scale of six inches to one mile. This undertaking was entrusted to the military Board of Ordnance, and the survey became known as the Ordnance Survey. The beautiful 6" maps, produced as a ,result of the survey, were published over the years 1833 to 1846. The maps for County Roscommon appeared in 1837; those for County Mayo in 1838. If one wishes to find the map of the Ballaghaderreen area in that first Ordnance Survey, one turns to Mayo, sheet 74. After the first survey, the Ordnance Survey - as the surveying body became known - continued the work of mapping the country. It produced maps at different scales, and it published revisions of earlier maps. A major revision of the original 6" maps took place in the early years of this century. If one wishes to find the map of Ballaghaderreen area in this edition, one must now tum to Roscommon, sheet 8. Clearly by that time Ballaghaderreen had moved to County Roscommon. The Ordnance Survey does not, of course, decide the county boundaries. It simply follows the boundaries laid down by the bodies, who organise local government in the country. These bodies, sometime near the end of the last century, decided that the boundary between Counties Mayo and Roscommon should be re-drawn, so as to bring the Ballaghaderreen area from Mayo into Roscommon. Since the boundary was over three hundred years old at that time, it seems of interest to ask who made the change, and why they made it.

  • Mary O'flanagan
    Hidden gems and Forgotten People COUNTY ROSCOMMON ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL SOCIETY Mary O’Flanagan Early in the 1940s Castlerea and its surrounding areas were still without any post- primary educational facilities. It is recognised that, at that time secondary education was still reserved for the privileged few. However, Mary O’Flanagan, who was joined by her sister Bea, was to change all that. A native of Cloonfower, Castlerea, Mary O’Flanagan was educated at Cloonbonniffe NS and later at the Dominican Convent, Eccles Street, Dublin. She went on to attend University College Galway where she obtained a BA a B.Com, her H. Dip and an MA. She taught for a short time in Navan, Tubbercurry and in France before returning to Castlerea to set up the first co-educational school in the town, a system of education that was very controversial at the time. On September 4th, 1940 Mean Scoil Iosef Naofa was founded at St. Patrick Street. It opened with 13 students, but by the end of the year the number had increased to 26. Mary O’Flanagan later purchased a building further down Patrick Street which was to become the school’s permanent home until free education was introduced in 1968 and then the numbers doubled. Mary O’Flanagan remained principal until her retirement in 1979. In 1983 it amalgamated with the Vocational School, which subsequently amalgamated with the Convent Secondary School in 1993 to form Castlerea Community School. Past pupils tell many stories of Mary O’s exploits – and she will go down in the history books as the woman who patrolled the streets to make sure that none of her students were out after 5 pm.

AGE OF ROCKS: Precambrian; Devonian to Carboniferous, Paleogene Streedagh Point and Ben Bulben Lower Carboniferous limestones with the isolated mountain of Ben Bulben in the distance. This was carved by ice sheets as they moved past during the last Ice Age. 2 COUNTY GEOLOGY OF IRELAND: Sligo Geological Map of County Sligo Pale Purple: Precambrian Dalradian rocks; Pale yellow: Precambrian Quartzite; Green: Silurian sediments; Red: Granite; Beige:Beige:Beige: Devonian sandstones; Blue gray:Blue gray: Lower Carboniferous sandstones; Light blue: Lower Carboniferous limestone; Brown:Brown:Brown: Upper Carboniferous shales. Geological history The oldest rocks in the county form a strip of low hills extending along the south side of Lough Gill westwards past Collooney towards the Ox Mountains, with a small patch on Rosses Point north-west of Sligo town. They are schists and gneisses, metamorphosed from 1550 million year old [Ma] sedimentary rocks by the heat and pressure of two episodes of mountain building around 605 Ma and 460 Ma. Somewhat younger rocks, around 600 Ma, form the main massif of the Ox Mountains in the west of the county. They include schists and quartzites, once sedimentary rocks that have been less severely metamorphosed than the older rocks further east. In the far south of the county, around Lough Gara and the Curlew Mountains, are found a great thickness of conglomerates (pebble beds) and sandstones, with some layers rich in volcanic ash and fragments of lava.
