to websites recommended by Mary Henry Archaeology Ltd. Practically
all of the known archaeological sites in Ireland are listed
here http://www.archaeology.ie/ArchaeologicalSurveyofIreland/
Any developments near a known site or in the vicinity of a known
site must engage an licensed archaeologist prior to planning and
possibly throughout the initial soil disturbance. In some
cases, entire towns are so listed. The onus is on the person
building or developing. The
National Inventory of Architectural Heritage is a website of
Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht. http://www.buildingsofireland.ie/
It is a fascinating database with images of practically all
the important buildings in Ireland and a vital resource for
professionals and communities who are interested in preserving our
architectural heritage. This
is an easy to follow 'Beginner's Guide' to Irish Archaeology. http://www.ballybegvillage.com/archaeology.html
It helps to sort out the phases of archaeology in Ireland.
