  • The Archaeological Heritage of Co. Cork Supported by the Heritage Council
    The Archaeological Heritage of Co. Cork supported by The Heritage Council The Archaeological Heritage of County Cork is going to be the 8th addition to the Heritage of County Cork Publication Series. It is hoped that this book will be published along with The Colourful Heritage of County Cork come November of this year. The following document gives you an insight into the types of various different sites which are currently being considered for inclusion in the upcoming publication. A brief description accompanies the majority of the included photographs to give an idea of the history associated with the site itself. From stone circles to forts, holy wells and standing stones, our County really has an abundance of heritage on offer! Drombeg Stone Circle Drombeg Stone Circle is located c. 2.3km east of Glandore village and is surrounded by a green field filled landscape. The site not only contains a stone circle but also consists of a hut site and fulacht fia. The stone circle itself was excavated in the 1900’s, when five pits were discovered beneath the ground, one of which contained some human bone remains, shale fragments and shards of coarse fabric pots. A horseshoe shaped dry stone enclosing bank, a slab-lined cooking pit, a u-shaped hearth and a well with an associated overflow drainage channel were some of the other features exposed following the excavation of the site.

  • Cork300 Events Series Launched for 2020
    Cork300 events series launched for 2020 Cork300 will celebrate Royal Cork Yacht Club’s 300th anniversary, where it all began, and Cork’s maritime haven, with a series of events next summer. In 2020, the Royal Cork Yacht Club in Crosshaven will celebrate its 300th anniversary with an exciting series of events on and off the water across Cork harbour, called Cork300. Founded in 1720, by a group of 25 pioneering individuals, the Royal Cork Yacht Club is the oldest yacht club in the world, and its tricentenary celebrations will take a look back at the origins of ‘where it all began’, which is attracting significant international interest from thousands of yacht clubs across the globe. Sailing communities throughout Europe and as far as Australia, Hong Kong and San Francisco are expected to attend the Cork300 celebrations - which will take place primarily during the months of July and August 2020 – to participate in the exciting variety of competitive and non-competitive nautical and on shore events scheduled, many of which are also open to the public. As part of the celebrations, communities across Cork harbour will host a vast array of sailing, racing, food, and entertainment events, along with a number of talks, ensuring Cork will be the only place to be in Summer 2020. The Cork300 summer celebrations, which will be preceded by several other events including European Maritime Day and Seafest in May, will centre on three lead events: The Great Gathering of cruising yachtsmen and yachts from around the world in July, Three Championship Weeks of competitive dinghy sailing in August, and The Club At Home Regatta for all fleets, also in August.

  • “EFFORTS Partner Camden Fort Meagher Hosts the Dutch Royal Family”
    “EFFORTS Partner Camden Fort Meagher Hosts the Dutch Royal Family” King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima of the Netherlands visited EFFORTS partner Camden Fort Meagher on Friday 14th June 2019 as part of a three-day State visit to Ireland, the first during their six-year reign. The three-day visit took place against the backdrop of intensive moves to forge closer relations between the State and the Netherlands. The Royal couple travelled to Cork on the third day of their visit to Ireland, where they first met with the Lord Mayor of Cork City, Cllr. John Sheehan. Their Majesties King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima then travelled by boat to Cobh where their 800-passenger Dutch liner Prinsendam docked in the town, sounding its horn in celebration as the Royal couple disembarked their boat ahead of a trade delegation meeting in the Sirius Arts Centre. From there, it was on to Crosshaven, and Camden Fort Meagher, where the Royal couple were met by Tánaiste Simon Coveney, and some local volunteer groups, including the Rescue Camden Volunteers, who King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima praised for their substantial contribution to the restoration of the Fort. Commenting on the visit by the Dutch Royal couple to Camden Fort Meagher, John Forde, Director of Camden Fort Meagher Developments DAC (the company now responsible for the management and operation of the Fort), affirmed that: “The feature of the visit was to get a sense of how volunteerism is integrated into the fabric of Irish community life. The Royal couple seemed keen on the impact volunteerism has on the community.

    The Colourful Heritage of Co. Cork, Volume 2 The Colourful Heritage of County Cork was published in 2019 as an action of the County Cork Heritage Plan and funding was gratefully received from the Heritage Council, with further support through the Creative Ireland Programme. Cork County Council are in the midst of producing The Colourful Heritage of County Cork, Vol. 2 which is hoped to be published later on this year, 2020. The sole aim of these colouring books is to act as an education tool, by engaging the public to interact with our landscapes, which are heritage rich, while also reading about these sites and gaining information about them, in a format which is enjoyable too! Images were submitted by many talented people last year and many more have been submitted for inclusion in the 2020 colouring book, Cork County Council are delighted to be able to showcase these remarkable drawings in past, present and future publications. The following document includes several images along with numerous extracts based around the heritage sites and monuments which have been included in The Colourful Heritage of County Cork, Vol. 1 and others which Cork County Council hope to be included in the upcoming Colourful Heritage of County Cork, Vol. 2.
