APPENDIX 8 – RECORD OF PROTECTED STRUCTURES Explanatory Notes The Record of Protected Structures below contains the structures protected under Section 51 of the Planning and Development Acts 2000- 2011 for the electoral area of Meath County. The towns of Navan, Trim and Kells have their own Record of Protected Structures contained in their respective development plans. An up-to-date RPS, incorporating any additions or deletions within the lifetime of the current development plan, will be maintained on the Council’s website or can be checked at the public counter of the Planning Office. Structures may be added to the RPS, without the need to make a variation of the Development Plan, and updated records and proposals for new additions will be available for inspection in the offices of the Planning Authority. Developers and persons proposing to purchase historic buildings are advised to check the updated Record of Protected Structures. The Record of Protected Structures is displayed in the form of a table, the rows relate to individual structures and the columns correspond to various fields of information relating to each Structure, outlined below. The ID no is a unique reference number identifying the structure on the RPS database of protected structures in Meath and on the set of RPS maps accompanying this Plan. Structure Name refers either to the title of a building, e.g. Garda Station, or the name of the business currently located in a building, e.g. ‘The Village Inn’ or the generic name of a structure e.g. post box, or dwelling house. In certain cases where limited protection applies this is indicated in this column – e.g. “façade only “ Number is the postal address number of the building in a particular street, or the number shown on the façade or shopfront signage. Street/Townland gives the location of the structure within the survey area either by street or townland name. Building Type relates to the current use of the building, usually at entrance level only. Description gives a brief description of the structure. This is intended to identify the structure and avoid confusion with other, similar structures. It is not a complete description of the structure and does not suggest that only those elements referred to are protected, or that the elements so described are of particular importance. NIAH Reg. No. refers to the registration number on the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage building survey of County Meath. The NIAH is a section within the Department of the Arts Heritage and the Gaeltacht. The work of the NIAH involves identifying and recording the architectural heritage of Ireland, from 1700 to the present day. You see this survey on line at www.buildingsofireland.ie While the majority of the structures in the NIAH survey are included on the RPS, not all are. In addition, the RPS contains other structures which were not visited by the NIAH.
