Perazzo Email: [email protected] July 2013 “Slate and its Uses” (On Valentia Island, County Kerry, Ireland, in 1852) Harper’s New Monthly Magazine, Vol. 6, Issue 31, December 1852, pgs. 79-81 “A few years ago, people who knew nothing of slate but as a material to roof houses with and do sums upon, were charmed to find it could be made to serve for so large a thing as a billiard-table. For billiard-tables there is nothing like slate, so perfectly level and smooth as it is. Then, fishmongers found there was nothing like slate for their slab (till they are rich enough to afford marble); and farmers’ wives discovered the same thing in regard to their dairies. Plumbers then began to declare that there was nothing like slate for cisterns and sinks; and builders, noticing this, tried slate for the pavement of wash-houses, pantries, and kitchens, and for cottage floors; and they have long declared that there is nothing like it; it is so clean, and dries so quickly. If so, thought the ornamental gardener, it must be the very thing for garden chairs, summer-houses, sun-dials, and tables in arbors; and it is the very thing. The stone mason was equally pleased with it for gravestones.

    Commuter flow influence of Metropolitan Areas for Employment Purposes Critical roads infrastructure Links for Kerry Kerry County Council Submission on the Draft RSES for the Southern Region Kerry County Council welcomes the opportunity to take part in the public consultation process on this important medium range planning and economic framework for the Southern Region. The Council recognises the importance of this Strategy in shaping the region over a twelve-year period and the implications it will have for the growth and potential of the Region. In considering this the Council is also mindful of the influence this Strategy will have on future County Development Plans and on the range of opportunities that will be created in the County and Region. In evaluating these issues the Council is firmly of the view that the Strategy should clearly focus on the current limitations and experiences of the region in the areas of economic and spatial development and as a result that the Strategy should be progressive in meeting these challenges and ensure that the entire region has the opportunity to grow and reach its full potential and to articulate for the necessary supports to achieve this. As part of this submission I enclose herewith copy of the original submission of this Council to the issues paper in 2018. The key issues outlined in that submission remain equally relevant today. The Council recognises that the Southern Regional Assembly has considered this submission and that the submission has influenced the draft Strategy with important inclusions in the areas of infrastructure deficits and the recognition of the importance of the economic engine of the county as described in the Knowledge Triangle incorporating the key employment centres of Tralee, Killarney and Killorglin.

  • The Kerry Way Self Guided | Free Download
    The Kerry Way: Self-Guided How to plan your multi-day backpacking trip around Ireland’s scenic Ring of Kerry Many are familiar with the beautiful Ring of Kerry in County Kerry, Ireland, but far fewer are aware that the entire route can be walked instead of driven. Despite The Kerry Way’s status as one of the most popular of Ireland’s National Waymarked Trails, I had more difficulty finding advice to help me prepare for it than I did for hikes in Scotland and the United Kingdom. At approximately 135 miles, it’s also the longest of Ireland’s trails, and in retrospect I’ve noticed that many companies who offer self-guided itineraries actually cut off two whole sections of the route - in my opinion, some of the prettiest sections. In honor of completing my own trek with nothing but online articles and digital apps to guide the way, I thought I’d pay it forward by creating my own budget-minded backpacker’s guide (for the WHOLE route) so that others might benefit from what I learned. If you prefer to stay in B&Bs rather than camping or budget accommodations, I’ve outlined how you can swap out some of my choices for your own. Stats: English Name: The Kerry Way Irish Name: Slí Uíbh Ráthaigh Location: Iveragh Peninsula, County Kerry, Ireland Official Length: 135 miles (217 km), but there are multiple route options Completion Time: 9 Days is the typical schedule High Point: 1,263ft (385m) at Windy Gap, between Glencar and Glenbeigh Route Style: Circular Loop Table of Contents: (Click to Jump To) Preparedness: Things to Consider Weather Gear Amenities Currency Language Wildlife Cell Service Physical Fitness Popularity Waymarking To Camp or Not to Camp? Emergencies Resources Getting There // Getting Around Route // Accommodations Preparedness: Things to Consider WEATHER According to DiscoveringIreland, “the average number of wet days (days with more than 1mm of rain) ranges from about 150 days a year along the east and south-east coasts, to about 225 days a year in parts of the west.” Our route along the Iveragh Peninsula follows the southwest coast of Ireland.

It is a magical place to discover on foot, from rugged cliffs to golden beaches, small villages, green pastures, peat bogs and always picturesque mountain ranges in sight. Hiking the Kerry Way allows you to see the “real” Ireland, away from crowds and only the sounds of nature to accompany you. This area was first settled around 300 BC by the people of Ciar – an early Celtic Tribe, and your holiday will immerse you in almost 10,000 years of dramatic history. Come and discover this region of Kerry known as the Iveragh Peninsula or more famously “The Ring of Kerry” & you will wonder why it has taken you so long to discover such an idyllic part of the world. This holiday begins & ends in Killarney and takes you to the eastern highlights of this trail.
