Report production: July 2009 Consultation: August 2009 SUMMARY Ponds are an important freshwater habitat that has been shown to play a key role in maintaining biodiversity at landscape level. However, ponds are also vulnerable to environmental degradation and there is evidence that, at a national level, pond quality is declining. In 2007, the biodiversity importance of ponds was recognised when high quality ponds (Priority Ponds) were added to the list of UK Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) Priority Habitats. -
HERITAGE PLAN 2016-2020 PHOTO: Eoghan Lynch BANKS of a CANAL by Seamus Heaney
HERITAGE PLAN 2016-2020 PHOTO: Eoghan Lynch BANKS OF A CANAL by Seamus Heaney Say ‘canal’ and there’s that final vowel Towing silence with it, slowing time To a walking pace, a path, a whitewashed gleam Of dwellings at the skyline. World stands still. The stunted concrete mocks the classical. Water says, ‘My place here is in dream, In quiet good standing. Like a sleeping stream, Come rain or sullen shine I’m peaceable.’ Stretched to the horizon, placid ploughland, The sky not truly bright or overcast: I know that clay, the damp and dirt of it, The coolth along the bank, the grassy zest Of verges, the path not narrow but still straight Where soul could mind itself or stray beyond.

Canals Geography Primary Focus
B B C Northern Ireland Learning Primary Focus Teacher's Notes KS 2 Programme 9: Canals Geography ABOUT THE UNIT In this geography unit of four programmes, we cover our local linen and textiles industries, Northern Ireland canals and water management. The unit has cross curricular links with science. BROADCAST DATES BBC2 12.10-12.30PM Programme Title Broadcast Date 7 Geography - Textile Industry 10 March 2003 8 Geography - Linen 17 March 2003 9 Geography - Canals 24 March 2003 10 Geography - Water 31 March 2003 PROGRAMME - CANALS LEARNING OUTCOMES By the end of the programme pupils should be able to • describe the development of our inland waterways • identify why canals fell into disuse • describe why canals are being restored • describe modern-day uses of canals ABOUT THE PROGRAMME Jamie Darling goes out and about in the Ulster countryside to discover our forgotten canals. The story begins in the old Tyrone coalfi elds and Jamie traces the development of our inland waterway system, which was designed to carry local coal to Dublin and Belfast. Some Key Stage 2 pupils show Jamie around the Newry Inland Canal and Ship Canal. We learn about the heyday of the canals and some of the problems that beset them. We learn how the advent of the railways sounded the death-knell of our canals as viable commercial routes. Jamie explores the remains of the old Lagan and Coalisland Canals and fi nds that a section of the Lagan Canal between Sprucefi eld and Moira now lies under the M1 Motorway. We see work in progress at the Island site in Lisburn where an old canal lock is being restored. -
