As part of Heritage Week 2023 historian and writer, Michael Byrne, and guest, Malachy Managan, prepared this lecture on the barony of Philipstown (present day Daingean) to mark the donation and subsequent conservation of a rare and recently discovered map of the area from 1786.
The map was prepared for the Estate of Lord Molesworth by the surveyor, Arthur Richards Neville. The map predates the canal maps of the town, and is rich in detail of its town plots, leaseholds and environs.
The map was donated to Offaly Archives in 2022 and underwent conservation treatment by Paperworks Studio thanks to Heritage Council Capacity funding. Conservation removed a vast amount of surface dirt and repaired a large tear across the map’s fold. The map was located by the donor thirty years previously and has not been viewed by the public. The newly conserved map will be available to view in Offaly Archives during the Heritage Week Open Day event on Thursday 15 August 2023, and by appointment after this. Please contact [email protected] to arrange an appointment.
