Goalkeeper on Meelick’s county championship winning team in 1917, he was imprisoned for IRA activities. He died trying to retrieve a sliotar which was hit out of the parade ring. Despite receiving permission to collect the ball, he was shot dead by a sentry when he went to get it.

Minister Darragh O’Brien officially opens €20 million Banner Plaza at Junction 12 on the M18

Banner Plaza, the new €20 million motorway service station at Junction 12 on the M18 in Breckan, was officially opened today by Darragh O’Brien TD, Minister for Climate, Energy and the Environment and Minister for Transport, at a special event attended by public representatives, local guests, project partners and members of the wider community.

The official opening marked a major milestone for the Atlantic Corridor, with Banner Plaza now providing services on what had been a 100-kilometre stretch of motorway between Limerick and Galway without a service station.



Guests gathered at the new facility for the formal opening ceremony, which celebrated both the scale of the investment and the significance of the development for motorists, commuters, tourism traffic and the wider region. The occasion also highlighted the local contribution behind the project, with many Clare-based contractors, suppliers and professional firms involved in bringing Banner Plaza from planning stage to completion.



Among those taking part in the official opening were Minister Darragh O’Brien TD, Plaza Group owner Pat McDonagh, invited public representatives and guests, while the event also featured live music from the Kilfenora Céilí Band, adding a strong local and celebratory flavour to the occasion.



Banner Plaza has created 120 jobs and includes a large food court featuring Supermac’s, Papa John’s and Mac’s Place Deli, together with a convenience retail offering, fuel forecourt, extensive parking for cars, buses and HGVs, and eight super-fast EV charging points.



Speaking at the event, Pat McDonagh said:

“Today was an important day for everyone involved in this project and for the wider region. Banner Plaza is a major investment on the Atlantic Corridor and it was great to officially mark the opening with so many of those who helped make it happen.</image:caption></image:image></url><url><loc>https://photos.clarechampion.ie/image/I0000Tkf9macT_HM</loc><image:image><image:loc>https://photos.clarechampion.ie/img-get2/I0000Tkf9macT_HM/fit=1000x1000/Q-A-st-flannans-ennis-2000-2.jpg</image:loc><image:title>Bishop Willie Walsh and Sile De Valera</image:title><image:caption>Bishop Willie Walsh and Sile De Valera answering questions posed by the students during a questions and answers event at the college (which college?) - January 21, 2000.

According to Eric Shaw, two large punt guns were acquired in Clarecastle in the 1890s. The punts traversed the Fergus estuary shooting flocks of geese and duck. A extremely large variety of shotgun, the punt gun was used in the 19th and early 20th centuries to shoot large numbers of waterfowl for commercial harvesting operations. According to Eric, the two  guns were used in the area for a number of years before their owners moved away, leaving the guns behind them. The guns were passed on to Clarecastle Heritage Group and recently the Clarecastle Mens Shed built a replica punt boat to demonstrate how these huge firearms were used.
