Info

• Appoint a field officer(s) solely responsible for visiting all surviving archaeological sites/monuments (including industrial and underwater archaeology) within the waterway corridor, who would assess current state of preservation, conduct a detailed survey with accompanying photographic record, establish a base data source with a view to future monitoring needs and regulate a future visitation process over a specified timeframe. Liaison with the local communities involved would provide a channel through which queries can be directed at the relevant authorities Policy • Utilisation of the findings in the current report as a baseline for future research Recommendations • Lough Allen, the River Shannon and the Boyle River have been recognized as a cultural unit and should the recommendations put forward in this report be implemented it should provide an important working framework for future research of other Irish lakes and waterways • Utilize the monuments/structures listed in this report as a basis for the identification of suitable sites for the provision and/or improvement of access and interpretative facilities for the waterway corridor Policy • Update current lists of protected structures adjacent to the waterway Recommendation • Utilize the monuments/structures listed in this report that are identified as particular places of cultural significance and extend this procedure county-wide as necessary as a means of protecting the heritage of the waterway corridor Policy • Future development of the waterway as an amenity should be set out in accordance to underwater archaeological issues Recommendations • Mitigation against potential damage of underwater sites/artifacts can be implemented by creating an awareness of specific sensitive areas such as shallow waters at access points to any of the islands or shoreline • Circulate policy booklets and documents for all users of the waterway including the local community and tourists • Delimit ‘no go’ areas for anchoring • Encourage better liaison between diving clubs and the Underwater Archaeological Unit (DoEHLG) • Introduce a speed limit for boats and jetskis thus reducing the negative impact on reed beds in shallow waters 64
• The archaeology of Irelands rivers and lakes is poorly recorded, therefore in order to devise informed management strategies of the waterway, further underwater archaeological surveys would be required 65
