  • The-Garden-Heritage-Of-County-Laois.Pdf
    GardenThe Heritage of COUNTY LAOIS GardenThe Heritage of COUNTY LAOIS housands of gardeners have passed through Laois. They include Stone Age farmers, medieval monks, cottage holders, great landowners and Laois men 4like Noel Keenan, who transformed a cow paddock into his vision of paradise. This brochure invites you to explore the gardening heritage of Laois. It includes descriptions of five gardens open to the public. The final pages mention just a few of the plants that generations of gardeners have left behind in the county’s private gardens, hedgerows and on its roadsides. Three men had a great influence on the gardens of County Laois. In the late 1800s, William Robinson worked as the garden foreman at Ballykilcavan. After a quarrel with his employer, Robinson put out the fires that heated the glasshouses and opened all the windows. Then he fled in the night. He never again worked in Ireland, but the Irish landscape and its gardens had a deep influence upon him. In England, Robinson scorned “floral rugs” and championed a more natural style of gardening. He is largely responsible for way most gardens look today. From 1908 until the foundation of the State in 1922, avid plant collector Murray Hornibrook made his home at Knapton House near Abbeyleix. He travelled from the wilds of Connemara to the walled gardens of the great houses, looking for interesting garden plants. Although Hornibrook is best known for his collection of dwarf conifers, several modern garden plants are propagated largely because he took note of them. In recent years, the county’s most influential plantsman was the late Noel Keenan.

    2021-2027 Laois County Council Comhairle Chontae Laoise [APPENDIX 1 :- RECORD OF PROTECTED STRUCTURES ] DRAFT LAOIS COUNTY DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2021- 2027- Jan 2021 1.0 WHAT IS A PROTECTED STRUCTURE? A Protected Structure [formally referred to as listed building] is a structure that a local authority considers to be of special interest from an architectural, historical, archaeological, artistic, cultural, scientific, social or technical point of view. The protection given to a structure applies to all parts of the structure, including the interior, the land lying within the curtilage of the structure, any other structures lying within that curtilage and their interiors and all fixtures and features. Details of Protected Structures are entered by the authority in its Record of Protected Structures, which is part of the Development Plan. Each owner and occupier of a Protected Structure is legally obliged to ensure that the structure is preserved. Each owner and occupier shall ensure that the structure or any element of it which contributes to its special interest is not endangered. Any person who, without lawful authority, causes damage to a protected structure shall be guilty of an offence. It is important to note that when a structure is protected it does not mean that the structure must be preserved exactly as it is, rather, it allows for managed change through the planning process, with the objective of retaining the qualities of the structure which give it its special interest. The addition or deletion of a structure is a reserved function of the elected representatives of the Council in their functional area.
