Fingal County Council has prepared a Draft Heritage Plan for Fingal covering the period between 2018 and 2023.

The National Heritage Plan deals with all aspects of our natural and cultural heritage including Fingal’s geology, wildlife, habitats, archaeological sites, history, music and folklore.


Commenting on the importance of heritage, Fingal County Council’s Heritage Officer Gerry Clabby said: “As well as making Fingal a great place to live and visit, our heritage underpins our quality of life, enriches our communities and sustains our economy. It gives us a sense of place and identity and is there to be experienced and enjoyed by everyone in our community.”
