Good news for Shandon and the Kinsale Museum. Both have been allocated grants totalling €322,000 from the national Historic Structure Fund to restore their clocks to working order. A Clock Tower without a working clock makes no sense. #RestoreClockTower #HeritageAtRisk

If you cover up the cracks and leave the clocks, windows and weather vane untouched, you’re only planning to do half a job. Do it right or don’t bother at all. Half a restoration is no restoration. Cork County Council Port of Cork #RestoreClockTower #Cobh #HeritageIreland

Not a million miles away, this clock is maintained by Stokes of Cork. Can you guess where? All public clocks should look this good. How about it Cork County Council and Port of Cork? #RestoreClockTower #PublicClocks #LocalHeritage Photo credit: N/A.

Dublin's Connolly Station originally hosted flamboyant 1840s scrolling ironwork and a gas lamp in every bay of its Italianate colonnades. The replacement railings seriously detract from the character of the building. They should be removed and the original design reinstated.
