PREFACE. a the Advancement :>% L ^ meetmg °f the British Association for of Science, held at Cork in August, 1843, the author read a paper on the Statistics of the River Blackwater, the object of which was to aid the laudable endeavours of the Earl of Mountcashel and Sir Richard Musgrave in rendering this beautiful river available for the purposes of inland navigation. The essay having met with the approval of the meeting, the author was solicited to extend his inquiries ; and, embodying the substance of the essay, to prepare the present work for the use of strangers visiting the picturesque district of the Blackwater. Considerable encouragement was afforded him by the nobility and gentry of this country and Great Britain, in subscribing their names for copies ; and from many connected with the localities information of a very useful cha- racter has been furnished. For the kind assistance he has generally received, the author tenders his acknowledgments. His thanks are especially due to the Rev. James Mockler IV PREFACE. of Rockview, and the venerable and Reverend Matthew Horgan, the parish priest of Blarney ; to his legal brethren, J. D'Alton and J. K. O'Donoghue, Esqrs., for many valuable hints ; to the Rev. Samuel Hayman for much interesting matter respecting the ancient house of Raleigh ; and to Mr. Windele of Cork for the result of his antiquarian researches. The author more particularly acknowledges the kindness of his friend Dr. W. Cooke Taylor, in superintending the passage of the work through the press, and the hearty support afforded him from the commencement of the undertaking by Sir Richard Musgrave. 54.

There are few localities in the British Islands so rich in picturesque scenery, historical associations, and monumental remains, as the valley of the Blackwater and there is probably none possessing an equal variety of attractions for the geologist, the artist, the antiquarian, and the political economist. Difficulty of access, arising not from natural obstacles, but from want of conveyances, long secluded its beauties from all but such ardent Tourists as could dispense with the means and appliances of modern travel, who did not reject the clumsy market-boat because it wanted the luxuries of the trim steamer, and who could trust to their own legs, relieved by an occasional "lift" on an Irish car, over by-roads and bridle-paths which had never experienced the improvements of M'Adam. The exertions made to open this beautiful valley by roads along its sides and by a regular system of river-navigation have directed a large share of public attention to its varied attractions. The summer Tourists who come to explore this new region of picturesque landscape and mediaeval history ; the speculative travellers, who love to examine the natural resources of a country, and the patriots who are anxious that those resources should be developed to stimulate the industry and foster the prosperity

    1901 Diary of Sir Horace Curzon Plunkett (1854–1932) Transcribed, annotated and indexed by Kate Targett. December 2012 NOTES ‘There was nothing wrong with my head, but only with my handwriting, which has often caused difficulties.’ Horace Plunkett, Irish Homestead, 30 July 1910 Conventions In order to reflect the manuscript as completely and accurately as possible and to retain its original ‘flavour’, Plunkett’s spelling, punctuation, capitalisation and amendments have been reproduced unless otherwise indicated. The conventions adopted for transcription are outlined below. 1) Common titles (usually with an underscored superscript in the original) have been standardised with full stops: Archbp. (Archbishop), Bp. (Bishop), Capt./Capt’n., Col., Fr. (Father), Gen./Gen’l , Gov./Gov’r (Governor), Hon. (Honourable), Jr., Ld., Mr., Mrs., Mgr. (Monsignor), Dr., Prof./Prof’r., Rev’d. 2) Unclear words for which there is a ‘best guess’ are preceded by a query (e.g. ?battle) in transcription; alternative transcriptions are expressed as ?bond/band. 3) Illegible letters are represented, as nearly as possible, by hyphens (e.g. b----t) 4) Any query (?) that does not immediately precede a word appears in the original manuscript unless otherwise indicated. 5) Punctuation (or lack of) Commas have been inserted only to reduce ambiguity. ‘Best guess’ additions appear as [,]. Apostrophes have been inserted in: – surnames beginning with O (e.g. O’Hara) – negative contractions (e.g. can’t, don’t, won’t, didn’t) – possessives, to clarify context (e.g. Adams’ house; Adam’s house). However, Plunkett commonly indicates the plural of surnames ending in ‘s’ by an apostrophe (e.g.

Carrigaline Ideas 1. Sustainable Travel Focus (The 15-minute town) This aims to get the citizens of Ireland’s quickest growing and most car dependant towns, out of their cars and onto the footpaths and safe cycling paths of the future by recognising, that they can reach most places in Carrigaline in less than 15 minutes by foot or on a bike. It is a series of small scale projects that add up to a long term goal of modal change, which will seamlessly marry with the forthcoming Carrigaline Public Realm plan and Carrigaline Area Transport Plan, as well as existing policy documents like the Cork Metropolitan Area Transport Strategy (CMATS) and Cork Metro Area Cycle Plan. 2. Arts and Culture Centre (The Vibrant Town) This vision will breathe new life into the heart of Carrigaline, by repurposing an existing building, ripe for renovation, into a new focal point for the community. With a town hall model, a mixed-use office (Cork County Council) and flexible meeting spaces; as well as a fully equipped theatrical, exhibition and heritage space. Carrigaline is the biggest county town in the biggest county in Ireland. Our town is the capital of the Carrigaline Municipal District and needs a Town Hall.

Since then we have had a whirlwind of change. Many have faced disappointments and great challenges. Still others find that the normality of their lives has been upended. For too many, illness they have already been living with has been complicated, and great numbers have struggled with or are suffering from COVID-19. We have not been able to give loved ones who have died in these times the funerals we would like to have arranged for them. Those working in what have been classed as ‘essential services’, especially those in all branches of healthcare, are working in a new normality that is at the limit of human endurance. Most of us are being asked to make our contribution by heeding the message: ‘Stay at home’ These are traumatic times for everyone.

  • Sustainable Management of Tourist Attractions in Ireland: the Development of a Generic Sustainable Management Checklist
    SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT OF TOURIST ATTRACTIONS IN IRELAND: THE DEVELOPMENT OF A GENERIC SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT CHECKLIST By Caroline Gildea Supervised by Dr. James Hanrahan A dissertation submitted to the School of Business and Humanities, Institute of Technology, Sligo in fulfilment of the requirements of a Master of Arts (Research) June 2012 1 Declaration Declaration of ownership: I declare that this thesis is all my own work and that all sources used have been acknowledged. Signed: Date: 2 Abstract This thesis centres on the analysis of the sustainable management of visitor attractions in Ireland and the development of a tool to aid attraction managers to becoming sustainable tourism businesses. Attractions can be the focal point of a destination and it is important that they are sustainably managed to maintain future business. Fáilte Ireland has written an overview of the attractions sector in Ireland and discussed how they would drive best practice in the sector. However, there have still not been any sustainable management guidelines from Fáilte Ireland for tourist attractions in Ireland. The principal aims of this research was to assess tourism attractions in terms of water, energy, waste/recycling, monitoring, training, transportation, biodiversity, social/cultural sustainable management and economic sustainable management. A sustainable management checklist was then developed to aid attraction managers to sustainability within their attractions, thus saving money and the environment. Findings from this research concluded that tourism attractions in Ireland are not sustainably managed and there are no guidelines, training or funding in place to support these attraction managers in the transition to sustainability. Managers of attractions are not aware or knowledgeable enough in the area of sustainability.

    Richard Elmore’s Letters to the Earl of Darnley Edited and with an introduction by Caoimhín de Bhailís Richard Elmore M.D. M.R.C.S. Attributed to Alfred Elmore, R.A. (Private collection) 1 John Bligh, 4th Earl of Darnley Attributed to Thomas Phillips, National Trust Mount Stewart, Scotland. 2 Introduction Richard John Elmore is one of the many nineteenth century political campaigners who have fallen out of view and hence consideration when we discuss the history of the period. Elmore was an activist who made valuable contributions to the debate on Catholic Emancipation and also a campaigner that sought improvements in the economic relationships that existed between Ireland and the rest of the then United Kingdom, as Ireland was a part of the Empire at the time. He was a close friend of Daniel O‘Connell and a director of the National Irish Bank; he was a defender of his Catholic business associates and, for a period, a major employer of linen workers at his factory n Clonakilty, Co. Cork. Richard as born in around 1785 and took his first appointment as a hospital assistant with the 1st Garrison Battalion in January 1807.1 According to Elmore he had moved to Clonakilty around 1807 with the intention of practicing as a physician, however he could ill afford to continue to practice as he often had to provide his services without charging a fee due to the poverty amongst the peasantry and he was ‗obliged frequently to put my hand into my own pocket; no man could possibly avoid it that possessed one spark of humanity in his 1 WO 25/75/92.
