Coláiste na hInse

Coláiste na hInse, colloquially referred to by locals as the coláiste or CNI, is a co-educational secondary school in Bettystown, County Meath, Ireland. Whilst English is the school's primary language of instruction, it places an emphasis on the use of Irish on a day-to-day basis. History The coláiste began in 2008 with 79 students, 8 teachers, and Anne Marie McCarrick as its principal at the former site of the closed Neptune Hotel, with a plans for a purpose-built permanent school building underway. In the meantime, the school made use of a temporary second building in the neighbouring village of Laytown. The plans were approved in 2010 by Mary Coughlan, signed off with Elliot Sammon Construction for a new site at the location of the former Scoil Oilibhéir Naofa. The school's purpose-built 25-classroom building with a gymnasium had its grand opening in 2012, by which point the student body had grown to over 600 students. An Cuan, the coláiste's autism unit, was established in 2013 to meet needs of autistic students. To keep up with the local demand for places at the school, an extension that would increase the school's capacity from 1,000 students to 1,300 students was approved in early 2020. The demand also pushed Meath Council to develop a permanent facility for Drogheda ET Secondary School in Mornington. At the start of the 2020–2021 school year, McCarrick stepped down as principal, having been in the founding position since 2008.

Gosford Castle

Gosford Castle er et country house fra 1800-tallet, der ligger i Gosford lige norøst for Markethill, County Armagh, Nordirland. Det blev opført til Archibald Acheson, 2. jarl af Gosford, i ny-normannisk stil af arkitekten Thomas Hopper fra London. Det er en listed building af klasse A, og det hævdes at være det største i Ulster. Jarlerne af Gosford boede her indtil 1921, og ejendommen blev købt af Ministry of Agriculture for at skabe Gosford Forest Park. Bygningen forfaldt, og i 2006 blev den solgt til et ejendomsudviklingsfirma, der ombyggede det til private boliger. Referencer Eksterne henvisninger
Замок Госфорд

Замок Госфорд (англ. Gosford Castle) — один из замков Ирландии, расположен в поселке Госфорд, на землях Маркехил, в графстве Арма, Северная Ирландия. Замок строили с 1819 по 1850 год. Строительство заказал Арчибальд Ачесон, 2-й граф Госфорд. Проект и строительство архитектора Томаса Гоппера, одного из ведущих лондонских архитекторов первой половины XIX века. Министерство сельского хозяйства купило замок и поместье Госфорд в 1958 году, где был создан Форест Парк Госфорд. В 2008 году замок купила компания развития «Бойд» и начала реставрацию. Архитектура Замок построен в псевдо-норманнском стиле — имитировал норманнские замки Ирландии XII—XIII веков. Это редкий пример такой имитации. Робин Фредден писал про этот замок в 1952 году как об «одном из самых оригинальных зданий первой половины XIX века». Томас Гоппер, архитектор этого замка построил еще один замок подобном — замок Пернрин в Уэльсе. История Замком владели графы Госфорд. 4-й граф Госфорд был вынужден продать замок в 1921 году, а во время Второй мировой войны, замок реквизировали и использовали как тюрьму для военнопленных. После войны замок Госфорд снова выставили на продажу, его купила Комиссия лесного хозяйства. В замке открыли отель и ресторан. Потом замок занимала британская армия во время конфликта в Ольстере в 1960-1980 годах. Парк был местом ирландского слета скаутов в 1989 году «Госфорд-89». В нем приняли участие более 3000 скаутов со всего мира, в том числе из Канады, Японии и Америки. Главный лагерь был в Вильсон Лэмб, координатор — Марк Лармур. Были развернуты шесть вспомогательных лагерей, а также лагерь для персонала. На 2002 год замок пришел в руинированное состояние и нуждался в срочном ремонте. После длительных переговоров в 2006 году в сотрудничестве со Службой Наследия Северной Ирландии, выдвинули предложение реставрации замка. По проекту замок Госфорд планируется превратить в жилой дом. Замок продали за £ 1000 в январе 2006 года, хотя проект ремонта был оценен в £ 4 000 000. До конца 2013 года стоимость реконструкции выросла до более чем £ 7 000 000.

Замок Госфорд

Замок Госфорд (англ. Gosford Castle) — один із замків Ірландії, розташований у селищі Госфорд, на землях Маркехіл, у графстві Арма, Північна Ірландія. Замок будували з 1819 по 1850 рік. Будівництво замовив Арчібальд Ачесон — ІІ граф Госфорд. Проект і будівництво архітектора Томаса Гоппера — одного з провідних лондонських архітекторів першої половини ХІХ століття.

Архітектура Замок побудований у псевдо норманському стилі — імітував норманські замки Ірландії ХІІ — ХІІІ століття. Це рідкісний приклад такої імітації. Робін Фредден писав про цей замок у 1952 році як про «одну з найоригінальніших будівель першої половини XIX століття». Томас Гоппер, архітектор цього замку збудував ще замок Пернрін в Уельсі подібному стилі. Історія замку Госфорд Замком володіли графи Госфорд. IV граф Госфорд був змушений продати замок у 1921 році, а під час Другої світової війни, замок був реквізований і використовувався як тюрма для військовополонених. Після війни замок Госфорд знову продавався і його купила Комісія лісового господарства. У замку був готель і ресторан. Потім замок використовувався британською армією під час конфлікту в Ольстері в 1960—1980 роках. Парк був місцем ірландського зльоту скаутів у 1989 році «Госфорд-89». У ньому взяли участь понад 3000 скаутів з усього світу, у тому числі з Канади, Японії та Америки. Головний табір був у Вільсон Лемб, координатор — Марк Лармур. Існували шість допоміжних таборів, а також табір для персоналу. На 2002 рік замок прийшов у стан руйнації і потребував термінового ремонту. Після тривалих переговорів у 2006 році у співпраці зі Службою Спадщини Північної Ірландії, висунули пропозицію реставрації замку. Згідно проекту замок Госфорд планується перетворити на житловий будинок. Замок продали за £ 1000 в січні 2006 року, хоча проект ремонту був оцінений у £ 4 000 000. До кінця 2013 року вартість реконструкції зросла до більш ніж £ 7 000 000.

Nerve Centre (organisation)

Nerve Centre is a Northern Ireland creative media arts centre. It was established in 1990 in Derry, Northern Ireland. Since 1999, the Nerve Centre has been based in a purpose-built multimedia arts centre along Derry's walls with a live performance venue, café, rehearsal space, recording facilities, video editing suites and animation studios. The film and animation work of the centre has received a number of international awards, including an Oscar nomination for the short film, Dance, Lexie, Dance in 1998 and a BAFTA nomination for the animated short, The Crumblegiant in 2008. From the early 1990s, the Nerve Centre has operated on a regional basis organising music programmes, animation and video projects for young people throughout Northern Ireland. In 2003, the Nerve Centre established a satellite centre at Crossnacreevy, East Belfast to offer access to education and training for schools and youth organisations in the greater Belfast area. Studio On Creative Learning Centre is a partnership between the Nerve Centre and the South Eastern Education and Library Board and is one of three Creative Learning Centres now operating in support of creativity in the youth and education sectors. A second centre is operated by the Nerve Centre in Derry, in a dedicated building next door to the Nerve Centre. The Nerve Centre is a registered charity managed by a board of directors that includes representatives from the education, arts, business and funding sectors. The Nerve Centre also has an entertainment venue, hosting popular music, film, video, animation and interactive multimedia. The Nerve Centre promotes creative collaboration between artists and tries to provide a cultural outlet for many young people who feel excluded from what is traditionally regarded as the "arts sector". The Nerve Centre has recently hosted gigs by such bands as Fightstar, Scouting for Girls and The Zutons have performed. Snow Patrol played there in their early days. The centre was also host to Irelands first Anime convention in 2005, Tomo-Dachi. The Nerve Centre is the base of auditions for Derry bands when auditioning for the BBC's ATL Rock School. The Instinct Festival is an annual festival which takes place throughout the city. It is a celebration of the arts and is free to all youth. Workshops that test the imagination and expand on peoples' appreciation for the arts are on show for youth under 18. Cuts to the arts budget announced in Stormont in early 2015 threaten the future of the organisation. Notable performers The following is an incomplete list of notable acts which have performed at the Nerve Centre: References
Queen Elizabeth Bridge, Belfast

Queen Elizabeth Bridge is a bridge over the River Lagan in Belfast, Northern Ireland, which opened in 1966. History The concept of a new bridge over the Lagan was first officially discussed in August 1959 within the Belfast Corporation Improvement Committee, with the purpose of it being to alleviate the traffic bottlenecks at the current city centre bridges. It was decided that the bridge would be placed beside Queen's Bridge to avoid river flow turbulences, which may have affected the existing bridge's foundations. A tunnel was also considered but was rejected for cost reasons. Over the next few years, the proposals were expanded into a larger programme of works, known as the "Lagan bridge scheme", which also included a large gyratory and one-way system to connect the bridges to the Sydenham Bypass (necessitating the demolition of 145 houses at Bridge End), two flyovers and seven pedestrian subways. In March 1963, the total cost of the scheme was estimated at £3 million, however by the time of completion this had risen to £4 million. In August, the construction contract was awarded to Charles Brand and Son Ltd for £3,749,213 1s. 5d. Soon construction began with the first pile driven in October. The demolitions at Bridge End were completed in January 1965 and by December of the same year, most of the roadworks were nearing completion. The decision on the name of the bridge in February 1966 proved controversial. The Unionist Party group in Belfast Corporation initially voted by 20 votes to 18 for the name Carson Bridge, after the former leader of their party, with the alternative being Somme Bridge. However, the governor of Northern Ireland, Lord Erskine, intervened to ensure that a more politically neutral name was chosen, which caused unionists to criticise him for "interfering" in the affairs of Northern Ireland. A new name, Queen Elizabeth Bridge, was then chosen and was supported by both unionists and nationalists. Sir Cecil McKee took credit for the name, although it had earlier been reported that it was believed to be the Governor's idea. The bridge opened to traffic, along with the other elements of the scheme, on Sunday, 3 April 1966. It was then officially opened by the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh on 4 July; however, their visit was marred by both a concrete block being dropped on their car from a height and a bottle being thrown at it as they made their way through the city centre.

Puente Reina Isabel II (Belfast)

El puente Reina Isabel II (del inglés: Queen Elizabeth II Bridge) es un puente en Belfast, en Irlanda del Norte, que no debe confundirse con el "puente de la reina" justo al lado de este. Es uno de los ocho puentes sobre el Lagan en la ciudad. Fue construido en la década de 1960. En 1966 la reina Isabel II y el príncipe Felipe, abrieron el "Puente reinal Isabel II". En el Ayuntamiento de Belfast hubo disputas sobre el nombre del nuevo puente, que hubieran querido originalmenteque fuese llamado puente de Carson. Durante la visita, de un edificio alto cayó un ladrillo en el capó del vehículo real y una espectadora lanzó una botella contra el vehículo en la avenida Real.​ Véase también Puente Puentes más largos del mundo Puentes más altos del mundo Referencias
Queen's Bridge, Belfast

Queen's Bridge is a B+ listed Victorian stone arch bridge in Belfast, Northern Ireland. It opened to traffic in 1843 and is named after Queen Victoria. Long Bridge The previous bridge on this site was the Long Bridge, which began construction in 1682, supposedly on the site of an ancient ford. It had 21 arches, with a total span length of 840 feet (260 m) and a width of 20 feet (6.1 m), although its long approach from the east made it almost a mile long. The bridge was rebuilt several times over the years, such as in 1692 when seven arches collapsed when it was rammed by a ship (possibly because it had been weakened in 1689 when the Duke of Schomberg's troops transported their cannons over it). By 1830, traffic volumes were increasing and a wider bridge was required, so the intention to build a new bridge was announced. The Long Bridge was not demolished until work on the new bridge began and it is shown on the 1833 Ordnance Survey map. A piece of granite from the Long Bridge is embedded in the pavement at the junction of Castreagh Street and the Albertbridge Road in East Belfast. Construction The contract for the construction of the new bridge was given by the Board of Works to Francis Ritchie & Son, with a tendered price of £27,000. The bridge was designed by Thomas Jackson and John Fraser, in their respective roles as county surveyors of Antrim and Down (the river is the county boundary). However, in 1836, Jackson was replaced as Antrim county surveyor by Charles Lanyon who supervised the construction with Fraser. By March 1841, preparations were being made for the foundations of the bridge; however, it had not yet been decided whether the bridge would have a higher central arch, to reduce the overall approach gradient, or if it would have a horizontal deck. By July 1842, one of the arches had been keyed in, with the horizontal deck design having been chosen. The bridge opened in January 1843, within budget but slightly late. In 1849, it was named the Queen's Bridge in honour of Queen Victoria's visit to Belfast, during which she officially opened the structure. Structure The bridge is a five-arch stone bridge, with each arch having a width of 50 feet (15 m) and a rise of 10 feet (3.0 m). The arches are dressed with Newry granite. The bridge deck originally had a width of 30 feet (9.1 m). This was widened in 1885 to 62 feet (19 m) by the addition of cantilevered segments on either side. 16 ornate gas lamps (now electric) were also added. They carry their maker's name ("Gregg, Sons & Phenix/ Iron Founders/ Belfast") and Belfast Corporation's coat of arms on their pedestals. See also List of bridges over the River Lagan References
