Croke Park

O Croke Park (em irlandês: Páirc an Chrócaigh) é um estádio de futebol gaélico localizado em Dublin, na Irlanda. Chamado normalmente de Croker, ele é o quartel-general e o principal estádio da Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA). Desde 1884, o estádio é usado pela GAA para sede dos chamados jogos Gaélicos, mais notavelmente as finais do All-Ireland de futebol gaélico e hurling. Além dos eventos esportivos, também é local de concertos de música de diversas bandas, como o U2. Durante a construção do Aviva Stadium, o Croke Park sediou os jogos da Seleção Irlandesa de Rugby Union e da Seleção Irlandesa de Futebol. Em junho de 2012, o estádio foi usado pelo the 50º Congresso Eucarístico Internacional durante a visita do Papa Bento XVI a Irlanda. Após um programa de renovação que começou no final da década de 1990, Croke Park foi expandido para receber até 82 300 espectadores, fazendo dele o quarto maior estádio da Europa e o maior que não é usado por um time de association football.

Кроук Парк

Кроук Парк (англ. Croke Park ірл. Páirc an Chrócaigh) — регбійний та футбольний стадіон у Дубліні, Ірландія. Є найбільшим стадіоном Ірландії та четвертим у Європі. Також є найбільшим стадіоном, який приймає матчі Кубка Шести Націй з регбі. 2 травня 2009 року на Кроук Парк був встановлений рекорд за кількістю глядачів на клубному матчі з регбі. Стадіоном володіє з 1913 року Гельська атлетична асоціація (ГАА) і там же знаходиться її штаб-квартира. Відповідно, Кроук Парк переважно використовується для проведення гельських ігор (гельський футбол та херлінг). Є домашньою ареною для збірної Ірландії з регбі та іноді на арені проводяться матчі збірної Ірландії з футболу. Побудована у 1884 році. Капітальна реконструкція була проведена у 2004 році після чого місткість трибун була збільшена до 83 300 місць. Арена знаходиться у самому центрі Дубліна, на відстані 15 хвилин він О’Коннелл-стріт. Слід зазначити, що матчі з футболу, регбі та крикету почали проводитись на стадіоні досить недавно. Це було пов'язано з тим, що за правилами Гельської атлетичної асоціації заборонено використовувати арени, які їй належать для проведення інших ігор, окрім як традиційних ірландських. Крім цього будь-який член асоціації, який грає у нетрадиційні ірландські ігри чи навіть відвідує їх автоматично виключається з асоціації. У 2005 році правила були суттєво пом'якшені, що дало можливість проведення матчів з регбі та футболу на стадіоні. Перший такий матч відбувся між збірною Ірландія та збірної Англії з регбі. Матч завершився перемогою ірландців з рахунком 43-13. 24 березня 2007 року на Кроук Парке пройшов перший футбольний матч між збірною Ірландії та Уельса з футболу. Перемогли господарі з рахунком 1-0. Матч відвідали 72 500 глядачів. Крім спортивних подій, стадіон часто використовується для проведення концертів. Так на йому виступали U2, Westlife, Take That, Simple Minds та інші.

Ardtole Church

Ardtole Church (from Irish Ard Tuathail, meaning 'Tuathal’s height'; Ulster Scots: Ardtole Kirk) is a 15th-century ruined church standing on a hilltop overlooking the Irish Sea and the Isle of Man, 0.75 miles (1.2 km) north-east of the town of Ardglass in County Down, Northern Ireland, at grid ref: J564382. It was formerly the parish church of Ardglass and is dedicated to St Nicholas, the patron saint of sailors. History This location was probably a pre-Christian sacred site. The present ruins date to the 15th century, it has been in ruins since at least 1657 when it was described as "only old walls". The church and graveyard are set in a very prominent position at the North end of a ridge. The graveyard is a substantial earthwork, now rectangular in plan, 52m E-W x 42m N-S. The East gable of the church stands to the original height, while the West gable is reduced to foundations. A cross slab of Early Christian type from the site is now built into the gable of the porch of the Catholic church in Chapeltown nearby The site also contains a stone-built souterrain. Architecture Ardtole Church is a roofless medieval church located northeast of Ardglass in County Down, Northern Ireland. According to the Northern Ireland Environment Agency, the church measures approximately 19 metres by 7 metres. It is constructed of local stone with thick walls and contains architectural elements such as lancet window remnants and a pointed-arch east window, consistent with late medieval Gothic design.

Argideen Rangers GAA

Argideen Rangers GAA Club is a Gaelic Athletic Association club in Timoleague, County Cork, Ireland. The club is affiliated to the Carbery Board and fields teams in both hurling and Gaelic football. History Located in the village of Timoleague, about 10km from Clonakilty, Argideen Rangers GAA Club was established in 1892. That year, a Gaelic football team under the name St Molaga's was entered in the local championship. The club was strong in the early years of the GAA, primarily due to the arrival of the Cork, Bandon and South Coast Railway in the area and the work of John Burke, a railway employee based in Timoleague. Argideen Rangers has spent the majority of its existence operating in the junior grade and, like many other clubs, has also seen various periods of decline and inactivity. The reorganisation of the Argideen Rangers underage section of the club in 1979 yielded success, with divisional under-14 and under-16 titles being won in both codes that year. Many of the players on these teams were part of the club's first big hurling breakthrough when, in 1985, the South West JBHC title was won. The 10-year period between 1993 and 2003 saw Argideen Rangers win three South West JAHC titles, as well as a South West JAFC title. The club also won the Cork JAHC in 1996, following a 3–09 to 0–11 win over Fr O'Neill's in the final. A restructuring of the Cork hurling championship system resulted in Argideen Rangers being promoted to the Cork IHC in 2004. They won the Cork IHC title two years later, after beating Nemo Rangers in a final replay. In 2012, a lack of numbers at underage level necessitated an amalgamation with neighbouring club Barryroe to form Ibane Gaels.

ВЕС Арклоу-Банк

ВЕС Арклоу-Банк (англ. Arklow Bank Wind Park)– ірландська офшорна вітрова електростанція, введена в експлуатацію у 2003 році. Перша офшорна ВЕС країни. Місце для розміщення станції обрали у Ірландському морі в 12 км від узбережжя графства Віклов. Спорудження семи фундаментів у складі монопаль та перехідних елементів, а також монтаж на них власне вітрових агрегатів виконало самопідіймальне судно Sea Jack. Крім того, судно Sea Power встановило метеорологічний вимірювальний пост. Оскільки ВЕС не має своєї офшорної трансформаторної підстанції, вироблена продукція одразу передається на суходол по кабелю, розрахованому на роботу під напругою 35 кВ. Його прокладання здійснило судно Coastal Spider. Вітроелектростанція складається із семи вітрових турбін компанії General Electric типу Energy 3.6sl з одиничною потужністю 3,6 МВт та діаметром ротора 111 м, які встановлені на баштах висотою 74 метра в районі з глибинами моря від 4 до 6 м. Існують також плани спорудження значно потужнішої – біля 500 МВт – другої черги. Примітки
Планетарій Арма

Планетарій Арма (англ. Armagh Planetarium) — планетарій в місті Арма в Північній Ірландії. Він розташований недалеко від центру міста та сусідньої Обсерваторії Арма на території площею приблизно 14 га, відомої як Астропарк Арма. Історія Планетарій Арма був заснований сьомим директором Обсерваторії Арма доктором Еріком Мервіном Ліндсеєм, який після двадцяти п'яти років зусиль заручився фінансуванням від місцевих рад і Міністерства торгівлі Північної Ірландії в 1965 році. У тому ж році Патрік Мур був призначений директором планетарію для нагляду за його будівництвом. У 1968 році планетарій відкрився. Відтоді планетарій зазнав кількох змін. У 1974 році головну будівлю розширили, додавши Ліндсейський зал астрономії. Створили новий купол для розміщення 40-сантиметрового телескопа-рефлектора для використання громадськістю. У 1994 році створили новий виставковий зал Eartharium (що можна приблизно перекласти як «Землярій»), присвячений наукам про Землю. У 1994 році відкрили Астропарк Арма з масштабною моделлю Сонячної системи та Всесвіту.

Askeaton railway station

Askeaton railway station is a disused train station which served Askeaton in County Limerick, Ireland from the mid-19th until the mid-20th century. Built c. 1857, the limestone station house is included in the Record of Protected Structures for County Limerick. History The station was opened by the Waterford and Limerick and Limerick and Foynes railways, then it was absorbed into the Great Southern and Western Railway. In 1924 the Railways Act passed by the Oireachtas of the Irish Free State moved the station to the Great Southern Railway. In 1925 another merger led to management by the Great Southern Railways. Then it was moved to the CIÉ by the Transport Act 1944 from 1 January 1945, on nationalisation. The station was closed to passenger traffic by CIÉ on 4 February 1963 and freight on 2 December 1974. Trains on the Limerick–Foynes railway line continued to pass through Askeaton until the line effectively lost all its freight services in 2000. Structures The station building and platform still stand next to the mothballed railway, with some of the station structures in use as a private house since the line was closed in 2003. The station house is a protected structure. Further reading Butt, R. V. J. (October 1995).

Athlone Castle

Athlone Castle, nogle gange omtalt som Adamson Castle, er en middelalderborg, der ligger i Athlone, County Westmeath, Irland, der dateres til 1100-tallet. Den tidligste borg der nævnes i Athlone var en trækonstruktion, der blev opført i 1129 af kong Tairrdelbach Ua Conchobair af Connacht. Denne fæstning blev muligvis opført på en eksisterende fæstning. Den blev genopført i sten i 1210, og det er denne borg, som står tilbage i dag. Den blev opført til kong John af hans irsk Justiciar, Bishop John de Gray af Norwich, og skulle forsvare og kontrollere overfartsstedet på floden Athlone. Borgen blev udbygget yderligere omkring 1276, da den oprindellige motte blev omkranset af en mur og tre runde tårne i hjørnerne. I 1547 blev borgen atter ombygget, denne gang af Sir William Brabazon. I dag er keepet på borget et National Monument. Borgen blev brugt som museum af Old Athlone Society fra 1967 og i 1991 blev der indviet et mere moderne besøgscenter udviklet Athlone Urban District Council. Siden 2012 har borgen været drevet af Athlone Arts and Tourism. Referencer Eksterne henvisninger

Audley's Castle

Audley's Castle is a 15th-century castle located 1 mile (1.6 km) north-east of Strangford, County Down, Northern Ireland, on a rocky height overlooking Strangford Lough. It is a three-storey Tower house named after its 16th century owner, John Audley. Audley's Castle tower house and bawn is a State Care Historic Monument in the townland of Castleward, in Down District Council area, at grid ref: J5781 5058. There are thousands of small stone towers similar to Audley's Castle in the Irish countryside. They are one of the commonest of archaeological sites, which indicates these were not buildings put up for the higher aristocracy, but for lesser lords and gentry. Most were built in the late Middle Ages (roughly 1350–1550). Audley's was built towards the end of this period. Features Audley's Castle consists of a tower set within a yard (technically known as a bawn) which is enclosed by a thin wall, with a simple gate. The tower has one main room on each floor, with one or two subsidiary rooms off each of the big ones. The ground floor has small windows and no fireplace or latrine and was for storage of provisions. The first floor has better windows, a large fireplace and access to a latrine; this was a room for the owner to live in and entertain his friends. It also has a chute for throwing dirty water away, so the large fireplace was also probably used for cooking on. The second floor was probably the lord's private room for sleeping and his family life: servants and others could be accommodated in the attic. There is very little historical information about the buildings in the small courtyard around Audley's. Only a minority of towers had courtyard walls at all, and their buildings were clearly less important than the tower. The towers in different parts of the country vary, with distinct regional patterns. Audley's with its two turrets linked by an arch is one of a type found in County Down only. History Audley castle is a ruin which once stood as a tower constructed in the 15th century which now lies on the ground of Castle Ward, owned by Viscount Bangor. The area was established by the Irish Normans, and given to a knight named John de Courcy in 1177. In 1646 the castle was bought by the Ward family and a 3-story tower castle was built and named after John Audley. Nearby was a town named Audleystown, until the locals were sent to America by the Ward family in the 1850s. The castle is now a public park Filming location During the filming of the TV series Game of Thrones, the castle ruins were twice used as a set, once for an encampment at the scenes for the 'battle of camps'. And another as a backdrop to the Twins', Frey residence in the 'Red wedding' in season 3, episode 9.

Audleystown

Audleystown ist eine neolithische Megalithanlage vom Typ Doppel-Court Tomb. Die weitgehend erhaltene Anlage liegt in der Nähe des Südufers des Strangford Lough, im Townland Audleystown (irisch Baile Audley) im County Down in Nordirland. Court Tombs gehören zu den megalithischen Kammergräbern (englisch chambered tombs) in Irland und Großbritannien. Sie werden mit etwa 400 Exemplaren nahezu ausschließlich in Ulster im Norden der Republik Irland beziehungsweise in Nordirland gefunden. Beschreibung Das Doppel-Court Tomb (englisch Dual-Court Tomb) wurde 1946 entdeckt und 1952 ausgegraben. Die Anlage ist trapezoid und etwa 27,0 m lang. Seine bis in eine Höhe von einem Meter erhaltenen geraden Außenseiten bestehen aus Trockenmauerwerk. Es hat flache, sichelförmige Höfe an beiden Enden, die zu Galerien mit je vier hintereinander liegenden Kammern führen. Die Anlage ist ihre Decke beraubt, die als Kraggewölbe ausgeführt war. Am Endstein der 4. Kammer kann man die sphärische Form der Decke erkennen, deren unterste Steinlagen teilweise auf den intentionell nach innen geneigte Steitenwänden der Kammer, erkennbar sind. Die Ausgrabung zeigte, dass die ovalen Höfe (englisch courts) gepflasterte Oberflächen hatten. Bestattungen wurden in den beiden äußeren Kammern der Nordost- und in allen Kammern der Südwestgalerie gefunden. Die fragmentarischen Überreste von 34 Skeletten aller Altersgruppen waren teilweise angebrannt. Es wurden 15 Fragmente jungsteinzeitlicher Keramik, diverse Feuersteingeräte (ein plankonvexes Messer, eine Speer- und zwölf Pfeilspitzen sowie Spatel) gefunden.
