A letter from the sheriff

Thu, May 19, 2016

On the night of August 18, 1882, five members of one family, John Joyce, his wife Brighid, his mother Mairéad, his daughter Peigí, and his son Micheál, were murdered in Maamtrasna on the Galway/Mayo border. The motive for this multiple murder is unclear, but John was suspected of sheep stealing, his mother of being an informer, and his daughter of cavorting with the RIC who would have been the natural enemy of the locals. Two members of the family survived the horrific attack; a nine-year-old boy, Patsy, who was badly injured, and his older brother Máirtín who was working for a family in a neighbouring farm on the night.

Pearse did not want its beauty to be wasted

Thu, May 19, 2016

Reading Geraldine Plunkett’s description of a holiday she and her sister Fiona, and their brother Jack, enjoyed at Padraig Pearse’s cottage at Ros Muc in the summer of 1915, I get a glimpse of the relaxing life-style that welcomed Pearse there since he first came in 1903. In fact after Pearse wrote his famous oration, which he delivered with power and menace at O’Donovan Rossa’s funeral on June 29 1915, events swept him along to such an extent that he was never again able to visit the cottage.

Hidden oasis at Nox Hotel

Thu, May 19, 2016

Nox is tucked away in the Liosban Industrial Estate just off the Headford Road roundabout. This relatively new hotel is a surprising oasis for visitors coming to Galway and locals alike. Set back from the busy road that encircles the city, it also has the advantage of being just minutes from the centre of town.

The property has a interesting history, it first opened as a Holiday Inn Express in 1996 and rebranded as an Ibis Hotel two years later. In 2008 it became Lisbrook House, a direct provision asylum seeker hostel, before closing its doors in 2012. You would never guess at its checkered past on entering it today. After significant investment into the building, it has been transformed into a sleek and contemporary hotel.
