BTW we also have a department for Heritage in Ireland sarcastic….you’d never think it though.
The problem is not with the Dept of (against the) Environment, Heritage and Local Goverment in Ireland – it is with the lack of power they have to do anything about such things

Thanks for that clarification- though I’d be of the opinion that in order to decide what buildings are Regional, it is necessary to survey everything first, not just the ones that appear to be Regional on a cursory inspection. But then again, I’d be of the old school where the NIAH methodology is concerned, and we all know how much got published in the (ahem) formative years… :rolleyes:
Yeah, that’s it ctesiphone. A full survey takes years and in that time many structures would be lost. The NIAH are currently involved in a primary, rapid survey for each county. It is in no way a definitive list. After the initial survey is complete I would imagine a more thorough national one will follow. All a matter of stages…

The NIAH are only publishing structures on the web that are considered to be of ‘Regional’ importance and above. Search for Waterford under the ‘town’ in the Waterford Survey on the NIAH website. I think around 900 sites were rated as being of ‘Regional’ importance and above in and around Waterford City.

(Waterford City, NIAH, mid- to late 1990s, unpublished- do I detect a pattern?)[/QUOTE]
Waterford City was published as part of the Waterford County Survey in late 2003/early 2004
Cork City has just been published and can be found at http://www.buildingsofireland.ie
