This dataset displays locational information for all 3,025 Holy Wells in the Republic of Ireland that has been recorded by the National Monuments Service. The dataset contains information on certain holy wells the precise location of which has not been identified and as a result have been assigned the National Grid Reference of 0/0. It is hoped with the publication of this dataset that some of these ‘lost holy wells’ may be located by public information which can be sent by email to nationalmonuments@housing.gov.ie. The dataset provides the Sites and Monuments Record (SMR) Number for each holy well along with a link to a more comprehensive online entry available on the National Monuments Service, Historic Environment Viewer, accessible at https://maps.archaeology.ie/HistoricEnvironment. This information is correct at the time of publication. It may be amended or altered by the addition or removal of Holy Wells based on information submitted to the National Monuments Service. This dataset is based on information exported from the national database on the 20/04/2023.

The Roscommon County Development Plan 2022-2028 is a document that sets out the overall strategy and vision for the proper planning and sustainable development of the county over the six year plan period. The Plan has been prepared in the context of the framework of national and regional strategies and guidelines, and must be prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended). The Plan consists of a written statement and accompanying maps and can be found here: https://www.rosdevplan.ie/roscommon-county-development-plan-2022-2028/. This web service represents a digital version of the datasets included in the Plan's accompanying maps. The County Development Plan is a material consideration in making decisions on future planning applications.

This dataset contains polygon data showing the location of the architectural conservation areas in County Roscommon. This forms part of the Roscommon County Development Plan 2014-2020. An architectural conservation area (ACA) is a place, area, group of structures or townscape, taking account of building lines and heights, that is of special architectural, historical, archaeological, artistic, cultural, scientific, social or technical interest or that contributes to the appreciation of a protected structure, and whose character is an objective of the County Development Plan to preserve.

The Wicklow Rock Art Project (W.R.A.P.) was established by the School of Archaeology, University College Dublin, in May 2012 as a pilot scheme to explore the potential of photogrammetry in rock art recording. 17 known rock art sites were recorded using this technique, which involves taking a series of overlapping images of a rock art panel to create a 3D model. These computer models enable the creation of perspectives not possible in the field, and allow for repeated virtual contact with the rock art, while also monitoring deterioration to the actual panel. W.R.A.P. aims to create a rock art record which can be used as a research resource, a conservation tool, but also to encourage public engagement by presenting this record in a visually engaging and accessible manner. By creating an environment of public engagement and interaction, the project hopes to increase general awareness of rock art in Wicklow, which should result in an increase in identification of new rock art sites. Perhaps more importantly, it aims to increase a sense of identification with rock art sites and help to foster a sense of guardianship of this hidden art. This dataset does not record all Rock Art sites in County Wicklow - for a more comprehensive list visit: http://webgis.archaeology.ie/historicenvironment/
