List of protected structures causes resentment
Some 485 structures are listed for protection in Co Kerry under a survey by Dúchas and Kerry County Council which is currently open to public review. Owners have until November 9th to send in their objections and observations to the local authorities. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage (NIAH) list includes a high number of structures on the "telecommunications" island of Valentia, where a special survey was conducted by Kerry County Council to chart the unique buildings.
