Avondale House

Avondale House, à Avondale, dans le comté de Wicklow, en Irlande, est le lieu de naissance et la maison de Charles Stewart Parnell. Elle est située dans le parc forestier d'Avondale, qui s'étend sur 2 km 2 (500 acres) de terrain, environ 1,5 km de la ville voisine de Rathdrum. La rivière Avonmore traverse le parc en direction de la mer d'Irlande. La maison est maintenant un musée. Histoire Avondale House est construite en 1777 pour Samuel Hayes, un avocat, auteur d'un livre sur la foresterie irlandaise et est un pionnier du reboisement de l'Irlande, plantant plusieurs milliers d'arbres sur le domaine. Il le lègue à son ami et collègue député John Parnell, 2e baronnet, en 1795 et l'arrière-petit-fils de ce dernier, Charles Stewart Parnell, y est né en 1846. Après la mort de Parnell en 1891, le domaine est vendu à un boucher de Dublin de Phibsboro qui abat la plupart des arbres pour récupérer son investissement. La maison est géorgienne, probablement conçue par James Wyatt et construite en 1777. Elle se distingue par ses beaux plâtres et contient encore de nombreux meubles d'origine. La salle américaine est dédiée à l'amiral Charles Stewart (1778-1869), le grand-père américain de Parnell qui commande l'USS Constitution (aujourd'hui amarré dans le port de Boston) pendant la guerre de 1812. Les bois sont renouvelés en 1904 lorsque le domaine est vendu au gouvernement. La maison sert d'école forestière et le terrain est planté d'une grande variété d'arbres, les plus réussis étant des conifères de la côte pacifique de l'Amérique du Nord. Les terrains abritent désormais des spécimens de séquoias géants de Californie et d'épinettes de Sitka de Colombie-Britannique. Les ruines de l'ancienne scierie de Parnell et du puits de Parnell se trouvent sur le site. L'une des attractions du site est un train forestier sans rail qui traverse le parc. L'extérieur de la maison est présenté dans un tableau de la biographie de Parnell de R. Barry O'Brien en 1898. En 2019, Failte Ireland annonce un important projet de restauration pour Avondale House et Forest Park.

Avondale House

Avondale House is een landhuis in het Ierse graafschap Wicklow, even ten zuiden van Rathdrum. Het is de geboorteplaats van de 19e-eeuwse politicus en vrijheidsstrijder Charles Stewart Parnell. Het georgian landhuis werd in 1711 gebouwd volgens plannen van James Wyatt. Het is nu eigendom van de staat, die er een museum heeft ingericht, gewijd aan Parnell en de strijd om de Home Rule. De American Room is gewijd aan admiraal Charles Stewart, Parnells Amerikaanse grootvader die tijdens de Oorlog van 1812 het bevel voerde over de USS Constitution. In het landhuis is ook een opleidingsinstituut voor boswachters gevestigd. Het Avondale Forest Park is toegankelijk voor het publiek en bevat een arboretum, dat in de 18de eeuw werd aangelegd. De Avonmore stroomt over het landgoed. Tot enkele jaren geleden stond er voor het huis een statige Japanse ceder. Hoewel de boom perfect gezond was en het hier een zeldzaam volgroeid exemplaar betrof, werd de boom geveld door een groepering die vond dat de boom het zicht op het landhuis ruïneerde.
Carlingford Abbey

Carlingford Abbey, also called Carlingford Friary or Carlingford Priory, is a medieval Dominican abbey and National Monument located in Carlingford, County Louth, Ireland. Location Carlingford Abbey is located in the centre of the town, just off Dundalk Street. History This abbey was founded by the Dominican Order c. 1305 under the patronage of Richard Óg de Burgh, 2nd Earl of Ulster, and dedicated to Saint Malachy (1095–1148). Two towers were added to the northwest and southwest corners of the west gable in 1423, giving the church its fortified appearance. Rebuilding took place in the early 16th century. It remained in use until the Dissolution of the Monasteries. The buildings were then used for a hall, a barracks and a handball alley. In 1671, under King Charles II, the abbey was to reopen, but ownership was disputed with the Franciscan. Oliver Plunkett, then Catholic Archbishop of Armagh, returned the Abbey to the Dominicans. The Abbey relocated to Dundalk in 1777. Buildings Remaining at Carlingford Abbey are the nave, chancel and central bell-tower, built of rough coursed limestone and greywacke. Slightly to the south are the outbuildings and a mill house. Defensive towers, crenellations and a machicolation were added in the 15th century.

Greenmount Motte

Greenmount Motte is a motte and National Monument in County Louth, Ireland. Location Greenmount Motte is located 2.9 km (1.8 mi) west of Annagassan, overlooking the Dee Valley. History and archaeology Motte-and-bailey castles were a primitive type of castle built after the Norman invasion, a mound of earth topped by a wooden palisade and tower. The motte at Greenmount was formerly known as Droim Chatha ("Battle Ridge", Anglicised Dromcath or Drumcath). A Nicholas of Drumcath (Nicholaus de Dromcath) is mentioned in a documents of 1310 and 1328. The foundations of an elongated chamber (1.5 × 1 m in size, 5.5 m below the summit) are visible in the bailey. A scabbard-mount with runic inscriptions (DOMNAL SELSHOFOTH A SOERTH THETA, "Domnal Seal's-head owned this sword") was found in excavation, but it believed to be long pre-Norman, indicating that the motte was constructed on the site of an earlier tumulus. Also found were animal bones, charcoal, burnt earth, a bronze axe and a bone harp peg with friction marks. Greenmount was a camp ground for Catholic Irish forces in the Irish Rebellion of 1641. It was excavated in 1830, causing a cave-in, and again in 1870. References
St. Seachnall's Church

St. Seachnall's Church is a medieval church and National Monument in County Meath, Ireland. Location St. Seachnall's Church is in the centre of Dunshaughlin, slightly east of the R147 (formerly the N3 main road). History The R147 road curves around the church, suggesting that an ancient ecclesiastical enclosure has become fossilised in the street layout. Secundinus (d. 447; variously Sechnall, Seachnall, Seachnail, Secundus) was son of was a son of Restitutus, a Lombard, and Lubaid, traditionally said to be a sister of Saint Patrick and founder of a church on the site between AD 439 and 447. The name Dunshaughlin is ultimately from Domhnach Seachnall – the church of Seachnall. The name Máel Sechnaill – servant of Seachnall – was common among Kings of Tara. According to a legend recorded in An Leabhar Breac, the 7th-century Eucharistic hymn Sancti venite was first sung by angels at Dunshaughlin, after Secundinus had reconciled with his uncle Saint Patrick. The abbots of Dunshaughlin are recorded in the 9th century, beginning with Ruamnus (d. 801), and continuing to Scannal mac Fergil (murdered 886). Erenachs and coarbs (lay guardians of a parish church and headman of the family in hereditary occupation of church lands) of Dunshaughlin are recorded in AD 952, 1027 and 1040. The monastery at Dunshaughlin was burned down in raids in AD 1026, 1142 and 1143. It was also plundered by the Uí Briúin in 1152. Dunshaughlin was also probably the church site of the Síl nÁedo Sláine kings of the 6th–8th century. After the Norman invasion of Ireland Dunshaughlin became a seigniorial manor of Hugh de Lacy, Lord of Meath. The earthwork c. 700 m to the south of the church could be a motte built by him. Thereafter, the church became parochial. A church at "Denclynschael" is listed in the ecclesiastical taxation (1302–06) of Pope Nicholas IV. James Ussher, Church of Ireland Archbishop of Armagh described the church and chancel of "Donshahlen" as ruined in 1622. Isaac Butler, writing in 1749, describes the church and tower as in good repair, but the chancel was ruined. The present Church of Ireland church was built in 1813 north of the older structure. Church The remains of the parish church, consisting of one pointed arch and two piers of an arcade, suggest that its nave had aisles. An octagonal limestone font has been moved to the modern church;it contained carvings in relief. Also present is a crucifixion scene carved in false relief over the lintel of a doorway. References

Lough Owel

Der Lough Owel (irisch Loch Uail) ist ein etwa 10,2 km² großer, mesotropher Süßwassersee mit geringem Nährstoffgehalt und mäßiger Produktivität westlich der N4, nördlich von Mullingar im County Westmeath in Irland. Es ist ein kalkhaltiger Quellsee, sein klares Wasser hat einen hohen pH-Wert. Er hat eine maximale Tiefe von 21 Metern. Das Wasser des Sees speist den 146 km langen Royal Canal, der Irland von Dublin aus, und den 79 Kilometer langen River Brosna, die beide jeweils zum Shannon fließen. Die Stadt Mullingar wird ebenfalls mit seinem Wasser versorgt. Im See liegen vier Inseln, darunter als größte Church Island. Einzelnachweise Weblinks Karte Beschreibung engl.
Lough Owel

Lough Owel (Irish: Loch Uail) is a mesotrophic lough in the Midlands of Ireland, situated north of Mullingar, the county town of Westmeath. It has a maximum depth of 21 metres (69 ft). Water from Lough Owel feeds the Royal Canal, a canal crossing Ireland from Dublin to the River Shannon. The lake is close to the N4 primary road. Hydrology Lough Owel and Lough Ennell are two of many lakes that form the River Brosna drainage basin. The Brosna is a tributary of the Shannon, flowing through Mullingar and Kilbeggan, both in Westmeath, and from there through the town of Clara (County Offaly) into the Shannon. It is a large, deep, calcareous spring-fed lake and has clear water with a high pH. Islands and history There are four main islands in the lough, the largest being Church Island, named because of the ruins of a church known as St. Loman's Oratory that used to be in the Parish of Mullingar. St Loman was a hermit on the island, where he was said to have subsisted on a diet of wild alexanders (Smyrnium olusatrum). The other three islands are Srudarra Island, Lady's Island and Carrickphilbin Island. The Viking chieftain Turgesius is said to have been drowned in Lough Owel by Máel Sechnaill mac Maíl Ruanaid in 845. Natural history Since 1996 the lake has received international protection as a Ramsar site. The lake and the wetlands surrounding it are rich in vascular plant species, including a number of rare plants. The lake is inhabited by a variety of interesting fish populations and there are many resident and migratory birds. The farmland surrounding the lake is the home to a considerable number of overwintering white-fronted geese from Greenland. It is noted for its birdlife and is also well known amongst anglers, and holds a few char along with brown trout. Because of the limited spawning facilities in the streams feeding the lough, the local Cullion Fish Farm is used to rear some of the trout eggs stripped from the adult fish, and the fish fry is later returned to the lough.

Lough Owel

Le Lough Owel est un lac dans les Midlands d'Irlande, situé au nord de Mullingar, une ville du comté de Westmeath. C'est un lac profond, bien connu des pêcheurs, car on y trouve des truites et un peu d'ombles chevaliers. Ses eaux alimentent le canal royal, un canal qui traverse l'Irlande de Dublin au fleuve Shannon. On peut accéder au lac depuis un parking et une jetée situés au sud de la route N4, joignant Mullingar à Longford. Le Lough Owel et le Lough Ennell sont deux des nombreux lacs appartenant au bassin versant de la rivière Brosna. La Brosna est un affluent du Shannon, traversant Mullingar et Kilbeggan, tous les deux dans le comté de Westmeath, puis la ville de Clara dans le comté d'Offaly, avant de rejoindre le Shannon. Le chef viking Turgesius fut noyé dans le Lough Owel par Mael Seachnaill Ier mac Mael Ruanaid en 845.

Lough Owel

Il Lough Owel (Loch Uail in gaelico irlandese) è un lago formato dal corso del fiume Shannon, nella zona centro-settentrionale della Repubblica d'Irlanda. Più precisamente si trova a Nord di Mullingar nella contea di Westmeath, Irlanda. Di origine glaciale, è relativamente profondo e molto apprezzato dai pescatori vista l'abbondante presenza di trote. Le acque del lago si immettono nel Royal Canal, un canale che attraversa l'Irlanda e che congiunge il fiume Shannon con Dublino. Si può giungere al lago in automobile tramite la N4 e lasciare la macchina in un ampio parcheggio adiacente al bacino. Il Lough Owel, col Lough Ennell, è uno dei due laghi principali del bacino idrografico del fiume Brosna. L'acqua del fiume è tanto pulita che si può vedere fino a profondità di almeno 6 metri tutti i giorni dell'anno, addirittura fino a 20 metri durante giornate serene. Il comandante dei vichinghi Turgesius sarebbe stato annegato in questo lago da Máel Sechnaill mac Máele Ruanaid nell'anno 845.

Ray Church

Ray Church () is a medieval church and National Monument in County Donegal, Ireland. Location Ray Church is located 2.5 km (1.6 mi) northeast of Falcarragh, near the confluence of the Yellow River and Ray River. History St Fionnán founded this church in the 6th century. Ray stood next to the Ray River, an ancient boundary between the Cenél Luighdech and Cenél Duach. Four 7th-century abbots of Iona were of the Cenél Duach; Ray was almost certainly their home church. Ray high cross is the largest early medieval stone cross in Ireland. Local lore claims it was made for Columba (521–597) at Muckish to bring to Tory Island, but local saint Fionnán recovered Columba's Gospel Book and he gave the cross to Ray. The cross actually dates to the late 8th century. The church was destroyed by Oliver Cromwell's soldiers in the 17th century. During Sunday Mass, the entire congregation was slaughtered in the Massacre of Ray (Marfach Ráithe). The dead are buried in a mass grave called Resting Place of the Bones (Lag na gCnámh). The cross was knocked down in a storm about 1750, and lay broken in the graveyard until it was repaired by the Office of Public Works in the 1970s. Buildings Church The church is rectangular with wide round-arched windows. Cross St Colm Cille's Cross, 5.56 m (18.2 ft) high and 2.26 m (7 ft 5 in) across and made of slate, was modelled on Saint John's Cross, Iona. Nearby A basin stone and standing stone are nearby.
