SITE SYNOPSIS SITE NAME: SLIEVE RUSHEN BOG NHA SITE CODE: 000009 Slieve Rushen Bog NHA is an extensive upland blanket bog, occurring on the south- east margin of the Cuilcagh Mountain range, approximately 6.5 km south-east of Swanlinbar, Co. Cavan. The northern and north-eastern sides of the site adjoin the international border with Northern Ireland. Conifer plantations extending to the mountain plateau form parts of the north-west, west, south and south-eastern boundaries. Site boundaries in the areas between these plantations include the perimeter of wind power installations, turbary ground and transitions to rough pasture and semi-improved agricultural lands. The townlands covered by the site include Aghanacally, Ballynamadoo, Corneen, Finaghoo, Gortnavreeghan, Legavregra, Finthilough and Mullanacre Upper. This large site occurs on a broad-topped mountain ridge, with a smaller parallel ridge to the north-west, with flat plateaux and gently sloping areas between the ridges. Bedrock geology is shale and sandstone. In flat and gently sloping terrain the blanket bog is very intact, with wet and locally quaking areas, occasional bog pools and excellent hummock-hollow development. Intact bog moss hummocks up to 1 m wide are common. The higher slopes support drier mountain blanket bog and dry heath habitat, while the lower slopes within the site are covered by dry heath, upland grassland and cutover bog. The areas of intact blanket bog vegetation are dominated by Ling Heather (Calluna vulgaris), Deergrass (Scirpus cespitosus) and cottongrasses (Eriophorum spp.), frequent swards of Purple Moor-grass (Molinia caerulea) and abundant Cross-leaved Heath (Erica tetralix) and Bog Asphodel (Narthecium ossifragum). -

The Geological Heritage of Clare
The Geological Heritage of County Leitrim An audit of County Geological Sites in County Leitrim by Matthew Parkes, Robert Meehan, Vincent Gallagher and Ronan Hennessy 2020 The County Leitrim Geological Heritage Project was supported by 1 For the: Geoheritage Programme Geological Survey of Ireland Beggars Bush Haddington Road Dublin, D04 K7X4 01-6782837 and Sarah Malone Heritage Officer Leitrim County Council Áras an Chontae Carrick-on-Shannon Co. Leitrim, N41 PF67 Email: [email protected] Dedication This audit is dedicated to the memory our colleague and friend, Matthew Parkes, who passed away suddenly in the days prior to completion of the audit’s work. Matthew was an exceptional geologist with a keen eye for detail and an expertise in numerous sub- disciplines of geology. He was inquiring in the field, had huge output in terms of peer reviewed papers, and gave tirelessly to students of geology, of any age, with diligence, care, and passion. Matthew was probably the driving force behind Geoheritage in Ireland, having initially worked in the mid-1990’s on the then-blossoming Irish Geological Heritage Programme in Geological Survey Ireland, and latterly as curator in the Natural History Museum. Matthew worked on and co-authored every one of the reports for the twenty four County Geological Heritage Audits completed thus far in Ireland.

‘The Way It Is’ Area Profiles A Comprehensive Review of Community Development and Community Relationships in County Fermanagh December 98 AREA PROFILE OF BALLINAMALLARD (Including The Townland Communities Of Whitehill, Trory, Ballycassidy, Killadeas And Kilskeery). Description of the Area Ballinamallard is a small village, approximately five miles North of Enniskillen; it is located off the main A32, Enniskillen to Irvinestown road on the B46, Enniskillen to Dromore road. Due to its close proximity to Enniskillen, many of the residents work there and Ballinamallard is now almost a ‘dormitory’ village - house prices are relatively cheaper than Enniskillen, but it is still convenient to this major settlement. With Irvinestown, located four miles to its North, the village has been ‘squeezed’ by two economically stronger settlements.
