Proposed Masterplan for Abbey Creative Quarter, Kilkenny

The acquisition of the 16 acre Smithwicks Brewery site from Diageo by Kilkenny Borough and County Councils is a significant event for Kilkenny which presents the city with a unique opportunity in the early years of the twenty first century. Kilkenny has had a reputation since medieval times for the quality of its urbanism. It was the first Duke of Ormonde who brought to Ireland, from exile at the court of Louis XIV in Paris, an appreciation of the importance of architecture and public spaces to the enhancement of our cities and towns. It was he who conceived the Royal Hospital, Kilmainham, the Parade in Kilkenny and Dublin's Liffey Quays. The acquisition of the Smithwicks site affords the citizens of Kilkenny the opportunity to achieve in the twenty first century what Ormonde could not achieve in his lifetime: replanning the city to address the River Nore. The site also presents the opportunity to redress the balance in respect of lost opportunities of the past: missing the Industrial Revolution (a blessing in disguise) and not being seat to a University (notwithstanding James II's grant of a charter to the University of St Canice in 1689). The site presents the opportunity to accomodate a university or third level institute and a cluster of knowledge economy and social media companies. These uses will present Kilkenny with the opportunity to be a competitive city in the knowledge economy of the twenty first century and beyond.

The location of the site adjoining the medieval heart of the city provides not only an opportunity to regenerate the city economically and socially but also provides an opportunity to repair the fabric of the city, to reinstate traditional streets and slipways. To maximise this opportunity the Councils concluded that the development of an Urban Framework Plan/ Masterplan setting the parameters for the urban regeneration of the former St.Francis Abbey Brewery site in was essential. As well as directly determining the redevelopment of the site itself , the Masterplan will inform the policies and objectives of the Councils in respect to the ongoing development of Kilkenny City and its Environs

. The Urban Framework Plan is the culmination of an innovative planning strategy adopted by County and Borough Councils, where experts in the fields of economic development, town planning, conservation and architecture engaged in a series of workshops to suggest strategies for the urban regeneration of the site. Following this process a number of architectural practices were invited to submit formal proposals for their approach to the preparation of an Urban Framework Plan/Masterplan for the site. The international practice, Reddy Architecture+Urbanism, which has a long established Kilkenny office, was selected to work with the Council engineering and planning teams on this significant commission.

and objectives as identified in the National Spatial Strategy, the Kilkenny City & Environs Development Plan and the Kilkenny City Centre Local Area Plan, The Plan sets out Conservation, Sustainability, Public Realm and Urban Design strategies for the site. These will deliver a mix of uses to ensure that this new quarter will be an vibrant and successful addition to the City which is both an attraction in its own right and an enhancement to the medieval core.

The Urban Framework Plan sets out guidelines for the design and delivery of: -

A new linear park on the banks of the Nore -
A new landscaped walk along the City Walls and Bregagh River -
Conservation of historic buildings on the site -
New public, landscaped spaces including a public square at St Francis Abbey -
Sustainable and energy efficient strategies for individual buildings and the overall site -
A university quarter centred on the regenerated industrial buildings to be retained on site -
A new residential /student residential district -
Indigenous and international knowledge economy uses on key sites -
Cultural, retail and tourist related uses on defined sites

The masterplan also identifies implementation mechanisms to ensure the delivery of the development on a phased basis, by the public and private sectors, over the next 10 to 15 years, subject to the vitality of the local and national economy. In summary the Abbey Creative Quarter presents Kilkenny with a unique opportunity among Irish and European cities to create a modern intervention adjoining its medieval core which enhances its cultural heritage, improves its sustainability and allows it to compete in the knowledge economy of the twenty first century.

സാന്റാക്ലോസിന്റെ കല്ലറയിൽ നിന്നും Saint Nicholas Graveyard Jerpoint Kilkenny Ireland. For Ivision Ireland:- Anchor: Ancy Koduppana Polackal & Chry_Martin (Martin Varghese - Ireland)

The supposed tomb of Saint Nicholas a fine slab effigy in low relief of an early 14th-century ecclesiastic popularly associated with Saint Nicholas of Myra in County Kilkenny, Ireland. While more probably a local priest from Jerpoint Abbey, it lies in the medieval lost town of Newtown Jerpoint, just west of the Cistercian Jerpoint Abbey.

It is located 2.0 miles (3.2 km) southwest of Thomastown, just off the N9 national primary road in the grounds of the privately owned Jerpoint Park. St. Nicholas's Church and graveyard are in the town, where the earthly remains of St. Nicholas of Myra are said to be buried. Belmore House stands at the top of the town.

The memorial has been moved since 1839, and it has sustained damage from the fall of a tree. A conservation plan was developed by the Heritage Council in 2007. In advance of conservation work in 2013, St Nicholas church and the tomb of St Nicholas were surveyed and modelled in 3D

Interview with TD Marc MacSharry, re the Joint Oireachtas Health Committee on Lyme Disease in Ireland

Woodstock House and Gardens - Historical Sites

Woodstock House, now a ruin, was for generations the home to the Tighe family. In 1737, the twenty-six-year-old Sir William Fownes inherited the estate and commissioned an elegant mansion, completed in 1745. He hoped to establish himself with the gentry of the area and to impress the 2nd Viscount Duncannon, soon to become the first Earl of Bessborough, whose daughter Elisabeth he planned to marry. Over the next forty-five years, Woodstock was the background to a series of dramas that led to the deaths of William, Elisabeth and their son-in-law William Tighe.

Many gardens and walks were laid out between 1840 and 1900 by another William Tighe and his wife Lady Louisa Lennox. The gardens contain many exotic plants from Asia and South America, including the Monkey Puzzle tree and the Noble Fir tree which form two of the walks in the gardens, as well as specimens of the Coast Redwood.

In 1921, the property was occupied by the Black and Tans and Auxiliaries, which caused much local resentment, and then by troops of the Free State Army, who were withdrawn from the premises during the Irish Civil War, on 1 July 1922. The house, left unguarded, was burnt down the next day, and remains a derelict empty shell, overgrown with vegetation. The grounds are being restored by Kilkenny County Council and are open to the public.

Also known as the Pleasure Grounds, the Arboretum at Woodstock was the focus of a considerable amount of exotic tree planting during the 19th Century.
Today the arboretum is dominated by conifers, notably Pinus montezumae var hartwegi, (Hartweg’s pine), Sequoia sempervirens (Coast Redwood), Cryptomeria japonica (Japanese Cedar), Sequoia dendron giganteum (Giant Redwood), Chamaecyparis pisifera (Sawara cypress), Thuja standishii (Japanese Arbor-vitae) and Thuja plicata ‘Zebrina’ (Golden Variegated Western Red Cedar) to name a few. In addition to the conifers are several other notable trees including Fagus sylvatica ‘Pendula’ (Weeping beech – Irish Clone), Castanea sativa (Sweet Chestnut), Quercus ilex (Holm Oak), Luma apiculata (Chilean myrtle), Crinodendron hookerianum (Chilean Lantern Bush).

Bill to ban animal circuses in Ireland (RTE News)

RTE Six One News report today (18th March 2017) of the Solidarity Party's bill which seeks to ban animal circuses in Ireland.

Interviewed is Paul Murphy TD, who has moved the bill in Dail Eireann.

Describing animal circuses as inherently cruel, Deputy Murphy said during the week: Putting wild animals like elephants, lions, tigers and camels on display to perform unnatural tricks and manoeuvres is backwards and cruel. The transportation of animals as well, as part of travelling circuses, is really horrific. We need to make sure that such practices are put into the past as they have been in other European Union countries. We want this bill to pass. To make that happen, we need to build pressure on the government and all the parties to support it.

Solidarity (formerly Anti-Austerity Alliance) stands for a different type of society, he added. A society based on solidarity where the thirst for profits has ended, where the rights and welfare of animals are protected. We fight alongside those campaigning for the ending of such outdated cruel practices as animal circuses, hare coursing, etc.

ACTION ALERT

Sign and share the petition


Urge all your local TDs to support the bill. Visit the Oireachtas website for names of TDs and their email addresses

MORE DETAILS

A statement issued by Solidarity provides more information about the suffering of circus animals and the bans already in place in other European countries:

Circuses are stressful places which are completely inadequate and offer substandard conditions for animals. This is backed up by a wealth of evidence from experts around the globe. Animals in circuses suffer from long-term psychological and physical problems. They are often kept in caged wagons and small enclosures. They are regularly forced to perform unnatural and bizarre acts and are denied the space, climate and social interactions that wild animals need.

Transportation of animals is a significant concern. In 2012, the Captive Animals Protection Society carried out a study of animal circuses in Ireland. It showed they tend to spend three days on a site and have next to no rest days. In 2012, Duffy’s circus had 500 performances over 266 days in all 32 counties. Animals shipped around the country like this, with next to no breaks or rest, is clearly stressful and cruel.

Across the globe, we have seen movements and then bans on the use of wild animals in circuses, pushed along by a progressive shift in attitudes and an active movement to protect and safeguard the welfare and rights of animals. Wild animal circuses are now banned in nine EU countries. In the UK, the House of Commons has supported a ban although it is not law yet. The writing is on the wall for this outdated and cruel practice. Across Europe, animal circuses are becoming a thing of the past. As a result, Ireland is becoming a dumping ground. This Bill would stop this. Currently, over a dozen local authorities have banned animal circuses. While a positive move, it is not enough as it only applies to council-owned land. For example, in South Dublin County Council, there is such a ban, but the Belly Wien circus was able to operate on private lands last year.

Old Wexford County Council building.

A short flyover shot of the old Wexford County Council building on Spawell Road / Hill Street. Originally built as a jail in 1812. Used as a military barracks after the Irish War of Independence in 1921. The last building on the right served as the women’s prison. The building ceased to function as a prison in 1903, after which it was converted into a home for female inebriates / drunks. Later, the grounds were home to Wexford County Council and a courthouse.

Historic Hurling

'Historic Hurling (with a bit of football)' is a ten-minute comedy film made by local children under the direction of artist and film maker Michael Fortune. It forms part of the Ferns St Aidans oral history DVD project, which is supported by Wexford County Council's Community Arts Network. With tongue firmly in cheek, the film traces the development from prehistoric times, through the early Celtic era, the coming of Christianity, the reign of Diarmuid MacMurrough in Ferns, Cromwellian times, the 1798 Rising, and the Great Famine, before finishing with a brief history of Ferns St Aidans GAA club itself. There's also a 'making of'/blooper reel to enjoy.
