MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, June 27, 2023

MOTION NO. 11

MOTION: Councillor S. Moynihan

That the Chief Executive reports on recent engagement with Archaeologists from the National Monuments Service pertaining to the old graveyard in Lucan Village and agreed next steps including an intention from the Council to claim ownership given their ongoing maintenance.

REPORT:

A formal report from National Monuments is awaited following their inspection of the site some time ago. With the proposed aquisition of Lucan House, the boundary of which property adjoins the graveyard, there may be an opportunity to bring access into the public domain. Any such opportunity will be examined in conjunction with National Monuments or OPW as appropriate.
