Sandford Park School

Sandford Park School is an independent, non-denominational, co-educational secondary school, located in Ranelagh, Dublin, Ireland. It was founded in 1922. History The school was founded in 1922 by Alfred Le Peton, who served as its first headmaster. Le Peton had previously served as joint headmaster of Earlsfort House School alongside Ernest Exshaw. It was decided to move the school from the terraced city-centre property of Earlsfort House to the 2.5 hectare Ranelagh property of Sandford Park, originally designed in 1894 by Thomas Edmund Hudman for James P. Pile, a property developer and Hudman’s brother-in-law. The school was founded as non-denominational, to contrast with the majority of schools in Ireland at the time, which had religious patronages. In its first year of teaching, the school had enrolled fifty-three boys. Le Peton resigned as headmaster in 1925. The Sandford Union, a past pupils union, was inaugurated in the 1930s. In 2013, the school began accepting enrolment for girls in all year groups, and in 2021 there were 429 students attending in total, of whom 171 were girls.

Sandymount Strand

Sandymount Strand (Irish: Dumhach Thrá) is a large strand on the east coast of Ireland, adjacent to the village and suburb of Sandymount in Dublin. It is part of South Bull - a major component of the south side of Dublin Bay, and part of the Dublin Bay Biosphere Reserve. South Bull is a mirror to the North Bull sandbank, which grew into North Bull Island. Sandymount Strand is a popular place for locals to take a walk. People, and in the past - there is no longer public vehicular access - cars, have been occasionally trapped by the incoming tide. A large inlet of water that remains even at low tide is known locally as "Cockle Lake". History In the 1930s, the strand was included as a suggested location for the construction of a new Dublin airport. The baths The Merrion Promenade Pier and Baths Co built Sandymount swimming baths in 1883. The baths measured approximately 40 by 40 metres, with a 75-metre pier added in 1884. The pier featured a bandstand halfway along it and summer concerts were regularly held there for many years. By 1920, the pier had deteriorated so much that it had to be demolished. The concrete baths section, which resembles a small harbour, remains. Martello Tower About halfway along the strand is a Martello tower. Built in 1804, it is one of many such circular defensive watchtowers along the coastlines of the British Isles, as part of a system of defences to provide advance warning of a feared invasion by Napoleon. The Tower was used by the Dublin United Tramways Company as an office, and was also a popular cafe back in the 1960s. An attempt to turn the tower into a restaurant led to the installation of a large window with roller blinds on the seaward side of the tower. The restaurant never opened, leaving the tower with the modified window. Awaiting the Mariner (An Cailín Bán) At the end of the strand walkway lies a 20-foot high metal sculpture donated by Mexican President Vicente Fox in November 2002, symbolizing the friendship between the Irish and Mexican people. This work, named Awaiting the Mariner, was created by Mexican sculptor Sebastián and was the first permanent work by a Mexican artist in Dublin. There was a mixed reaction from residents when the sculpture was originally placed. Gallan Gréine The Gallan Gréine marker stone is located at the end of the strand beside the Irishtown playing fields. Carved by Cliodna Cussen and dedicated to James Joyce in 1983, a sighting stone stands 300 metres to the west and when aligned with the marker stone to the east, indicates the winter solstice with the sun rising over Killiney Hill around 21 December each year. The face of this stone is also a sundial. In fiction James Joyce based two episodes of his 1922 novel Ulysses along Sandymount Strand. In the third episode, "Proteus", Stephen Dedalus wanders the strand, while later the same day, in the "Nausicaa" episode, Leopold Bloom sits on a rock and masturbates as he watches a young woman sunbathing.

Sarsfields GAA (Cork)

Sarsfields GAA is a Gaelic Athletic Association club in Glanmire, County Cork, Ireland. The club, a sister club of Glanmire, is solely concerned with the game of hurling. History Sarsfields GAA Club was established by a group of men, led by Billy O'Neill, in 1894. Named in honour of the Irish Jacobite and soldier Patrick Sarsfield, 1st Earl of Lucan, the club was first formally registered in 1896. Sarsfields claimed their first county honours in 1937, when the Cork JHC was secured, however, there were also Cork SHC final defeats in 1909, 1936, 1940, 1947 and 1989. Sarsfields made the SHC breakthrough in 1951 following a 5–08 to 3–07 defeat of Glen Rovers in the final. The club added a second SHC title after a defeat of University College Cork in 1957. A fallow period in terms of success followed for the next 50 years before the club's "golden era". In the eight-year period between 2008 and 2015, Sarsfields contested seven SHC finals, with victories in 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2014. Sarsfields collected their seventh Cork SHC title after a 0–21 to 0–19 defeat of Midleton in 2023. Days after this victory the club suffered extensive damage to their club grounds and main pitch after Storm Babet. Sarsfields won the Munster Club SHC title after a 3–20 to 2–19 win over Ballygunner in 2024. Grounds The club's home ground is Páirc Tadhg Mac Cárthaigh. It was renamed in honour of former player Teddy McCarthy, who was a dual All-Ireland medal-winner in 1990. The official renaming ceremony took place on 5 April 2025.

Дъблински замък

Дъблинският замък (на ирландски: Caisleán Bhaile Átha Cliath) на ул. „Дейм“, Дъблин, Ирландия е главен правителствен комплекс в Дъблин, Ирландия. До 1922 година е седалище на администрацията на правителството на Обединеното кралство в Ирландия. По-голямата част от комплекса е от XVIII век, но замъкът съществува от времето на крал Джон, първият лорд на Ирландия. Замъкът служи като седалище на англичаните при Лордство Ирландия (1171 – 1541), Кралство Ирландия (1541 – 1800) и Обединеното кралство Великобритания и Ирландия (1800 – 1922). След подписването на Англо-ирландския договор през декември 1921 година, комплексът е церемониално предаден на новосформираното временно правителство на Майкъл Колинс. Дъблинският замък е изпълнявал редица роли през цялата си история. Първоначално построен като отбранително укрепление за нормандския град Дъблин, по-късно той се превръща в официална резиденция, използвана от лорд-лейтенанта или вицекраля на Ирландия, представител на монарха. Вторият по длъжност в администрацията на Дъблинския замък, главният секретар на Ирландия, също е имал свои офиси там. В замъка са заседавали парламентът и определени съдилищаа, преди да се преместят в нови специално построени сгради. Служил и като база за военен гарнизон, а по-късно и за разузнавателни служби. Голяма част от средновековния замък изгаря през април 1684 година. Днес държавните апартаменти в Замъка са музей, използван от президента и правителството на Ирландия за държавни събития.

Dublinský zámek

Dublinský zámek, popřípadě Dublinský hrad, anglicky Dublin castle, irsky Caisleán Bhaile Átha Cliath, je stavba v irském hlavním městě Dublin, na ulici Dame Street. Poté co v roce 1922 vešla v platnost Anglo-irská dohoda konají se v jeho sále St Patrick's Hall oficiální akce, jako například inaugurace irského prezidenta. Před rokem 1922 na zámku sídlila britská správa Irska. Počátky stavby sahají do roku 1204, stavitelem byl Jan Bezzemek. Památkou na tuto, gotickou, fázi výstavby jsou především dvě věže, Bermingham Tower a Record Tower. Věže sloužily v minulosti také jako vězení, byl zde vězněn například jeden z vůdců irského povstání z roku 1798 Joseph Holt. Současná podoba zámku však pochází především z 18. století. Typickým rysem je jistá stylová nekompaktnost dostaveb. V 17. století byly vytvořeny zahrady. Celý zámecký komplex se rozkládá na ploše 44 000 metrů čtverečních.

Dublin Castle

Dublin Castle er et slot i Dublin. Det var sæde for den britiske administration i Irland frem til 1922. Det meste af bygningen er fra det 18. århundrede, men der er nogle rester af det oprindelige slot, som blev rejst under den første Lord af Irland Johan af England i 1204. Allerede i 1169 blev det besluttet, at der skulle bygges en fæstning i byen, med kraftige mure, og gode voldgrave til beskyttelse af byen, til administration og til at beskytte kongen skatte. Slottet var fra begyndelsen øens administrationscenter i kraft af at være kongelig residens. Gennem århundrederne har det været residens for Irlands statholder, også kendt som Irlands vicekonge. Vicekongens lejlighed regnes som nogle af de flotteste rum i Dublin, og bruges blandt andet ved indsættelse af landets præsident. Slottet er også i perioder blevet brugt af parlamentet og forskellige domstole samt militærgarnison. På grund af den stærke tilknytning til den britiske administration er navnet Dublin Castle blevet brugt både om bygningen og om administrationen. Man fik også skældsordet Castle Catholic, som blev brugt om katolikker, som blev opfattet som for venligtsindede mod briterne. De irske kronjuveler blev opbevaret i slottet. De blev stjålet derfra i 1907 og er ikke kommet tilbage. Under den irske uafhængighedskrig var slottet centret i den britiske krigsindsats mod irske republikanere. Natten før Bloody Sunday i 1920 blev to IRA-officerer og en ven af dem dræbt på slottet, angiveligt under et flugtforsøg. Personerne var Dick McKee, Conor Clune og Peadar Clancy. Da Den irske fristat blev oprettet i 1922 blev bygningen overtaget af domstolene, eftersom Four Courts blev ødelagt samme år. Da de flyttede ud blev bygningen taget i brug til statsceremonier. Éamon de Valera tog imod akkrediteringer fra ambassadører der i 1930'erne, og i 1938 blev slottet for første gang brugt ved indsættelsen af en præsident, Douglas Hyde. Præsident Erskine Hamilton Childers lå på lit-de-parade på slottet i november 1974, og det samme gjorde de Valera i september 1975. Det eneste statslige organ, som er fast lokaliseret der, er Office of the Revenue Commissioners. Slottet er også en turistattraktion, og efter en omfattende renovering bruges det som konferencecenter. Mens Irland havde præsidentskabet i EU var det mødested for Europarådet ved flere lejligheder. Når der ikke på slottet foregår statsceremonier eller møder, som kræver speciel sikkerhed, er det meste af slottet åbent for offentligheden. Blandt rummene, som er åbne, er St. Patricks hall, balrummet hvor præsidentindsættelserne finder sted samt vicekongens lejlighed. Pr. 2006 er den sidste, som overnattede i de kongelige rum, Margaret Thatcher, som var der sammen med sin mand Dennis under et møde i Europarådet i 1979. Dublin Castle ejes af staten, og vedligeholdes af Office of Public Works. Slottet har været brugt i film som Barry Lyndon, Michael Collins, Becoming Jane og The Medallion samt i tv-serien The Tudors, hvor det bliver brugt som en del af Vatikanet i pilotepisoden.

Dublin Castle

Das Dublin Castle (irisch Caisleán Bhaile Átha Cliath) ist ein Schloss in Dublin in Irland. Es befindet sich an der Dame Street inmitten der Altstadt. Geschichte An der Stelle des Schlosses befand sich bereits im 10. Jahrhundert eine Festung. Sie wurde im Jahre 1170 von den Normannen erobert und in den Jahren 1204–1230 ausgebaut. Der Turm Record Tower aus dem Jahr 1226 ist bis heute erhalten geblieben. Die gegenwärtig existierenden Gebäude entstammen vorwiegend dem 18. und 19. Jahrhundert. Im Mittelalter und in der frühen Neuzeit war Dublin Castle auch ein Gefängnis mit teilweise prominenten Häftlingen. Von 1570 bis 1575 wurde Richard Creagh, der Erzbischof von Armagh und Primas von Irland, dort festgehalten († 1586 im Tower of London). 1907 wurden auf Dublin Castle die Irischen Kronjuwelen gestohlen. Bis zum Jahr 1922 befand sich im Schloss der Amtssitz des Gouverneurs (Vizekönigs) und der britischen Verwaltung von Irland. Die Repräsentationsräume The State Apartments aus den Jahren 1680–1830 werden noch heute bei den offiziellen Anlässen genutzt. Dazu gehören u. a. die Amtseinführung des Präsidenten des Landes wie auch die Treffen des Europäischen Rates, zuletzt im Jahr 2004. Amtssitz des irischen Präsidenten ist das Landhaus Áras an Uachtaráin, das zuvor den britischen Gouverneuren als Wohnsitz diente. Kapelle Die einst anglikanische königliche Kapelle (Chapel Royal) aus dem 18. Jahrhundert wurde im Jahr 1943 zur römisch-katholischen Kirche unter dem Namen Church of the Most Holy Trinity. Sie dient heute als ein Kulturzentrum. Weblinks Offizielle Website (englisch) Literatur Myles Campbell, William Derham: The Chapel Royal, Dublin Castle.

Dublin Castle

Dublin Castle i Irlands huvudstad Dublin var lordlöjtnantens residens samt säte för brittiskt styre på Irland fram till år 1922. Huvuddelen av slottet är från 1700-talet, men det finns delar som är från 1100- och 1200-talet. Historia På 930-talet byggde danska vikingar ett fort på den högsta punkten vid floden Liffey för att skydda sin bosättning Dyflinn. Dyflinn blev ett viktigt handelscenter för handeln med slavar och silver på Irland. Fortet blev också en stark militärbas. De danska vikingarnas makt höll i sig ända tills den irländska kungen Brian Boru fördrev dem i slaget vid Clontarft år 1014. Runt år 1170 var det normandernas tur att ta slottet i besittning. De förstärkte och utökade de befintliga stadsmurarna. Kung John av England fortsatte trenden när han år 1204 gav order att bygga ett större fort med starkare murar. Det skulle användas till stadens försvar, domstol och förvaring av insamlade skatter. Det blev färdigt år 1230. Tornen Det sydöstra tornet är det sista bevarade medeltida tornet i Dublin och användes främst som ett högsäkerhets-fängelse. Det sydvästra tornet användes också som fängelse men de använde även tornet för att förvara administrativa papper. Vid en explosion på 1700-talet förstördes tornet. Det enda som blev kvar var den första våningen. Tornet byggdes upp igen år 1777. Det som är kvar av det nordvästra tornet används som grund för en annan byggnad. Det nordöstra tornet som vilar på en försvarsbank från 900-talet är nätt och jämnt synligt. Branden Den 7 april 1684 härjades slottet av en häftig brand. För att försöka rädda krutlagret i ett av tornen och de administrativa pappren i det sydvästra tornet sprängdes närliggande byggnader för att skapa brandgator. Nutid Idag är slottet en stor turistattraktion med konferenscenter och guidade turer. De har ett polismuseum, bibliotek och ett antal restauranger. Dublin castle används också för statsangelägenheter.

Savoy Cinema

The Savoy Cinema on the east side of Upper O'Connell Street in Dublin, Ireland is the oldest operational cinema in Dublin and is the preferred cinema in Ireland for film premières. History The cinema was built in 1929 by Meagher & Hayes, on the site of the old Granville Hotel. The luxurious auditorium, housing 2,789 seats, opened to the public with the American colour talkie On with the Show. It was altered in 1954 to incorporate a large CinemaScope screen, and showed Ireland's first widescreen feature, The Robe, at the time owned by Odeon Ireland Ltd. It was reported in February 2012 that the cinema was in danger of closing. In the previous decade, audience numbers fell from 740,000 to 250,000 per annum. Screens The Savoy is the most altered cinema in Dublin's history, and in 1969 the cinema was converted into a twin cinema. In 1975, the Savoy's restaurant was converted into a third screen, holding 200 seats, followed in 1979 by further sub-divisions, creating five screens in all. In 1988, the cinema was given its sixth screen. In the process, the Savoy had lost a third of its capacity. In 2004, renovation work was carried out, moving the box office from the two booths located on either side of the entrance to what used to be an adjoining shop. The confectionery counter has also been moved many times, it is now in a room to the left of the main entrance. The Advance Screening Room became the seventh screen in 2014 it is now screen 13. In 2016, the old Screen 2 (500 seats) was converted into three smaller screens and the Savoy became a 9 screen cinema in Dublin City Centre. In January 2018, the "iconic" Screen 1 which held 750 was closed for work to split it into multiple screens. Premières The cinema has hosted the Irish premières of many films, most of them having an Irish connection. Films shown here have included Alexander, Once and The Man in the Iron Mask. The cinema was used until 2017 during the Dublin International Film Festival, primarily for big-event screenings such as opening and closing night premiers. It also hosts the surprise film, which in 2006 was the first Irish screening of the film, 300. Controversy In December 1934, Republicans demonstrated against the screening at the cinema of a newsreel of the marriage of Prince George, Duke of Kent, to Princess Marina.
