Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2000 / October 7 2000: Project gets under way to list and save buildings

The 1920s power station at Ardnacrusha, Shannon Airport and the Ailwee Caves Visitors' Centre are buildings newly listed in the first county architectural survey in the State. The survey is part of a 12-year national project to document and protect the State's architectural environment. The County Clare Interim Survey was completed so the local authority can create a record of the architectural heritage in its area. It forms part of the interim National Inventory of Architectural Heritage (NIAH), according to Mr Risteard Ua Cróinín, the council's new conservation officer.
