Drumanagh
Draft Conservation and Management Plan
This is your chance to make your views known.
Fingal County Council is seeking your views in relation to the Draft Conservation and Management Plan for the Drumanagh promontory fort, located between Rush and Loughshinny.
This historic site was previously in private ownership before Fingal purchased it in2016. Drumanagh is a 46-acre site, which is also a National Monument subject to statutory protection and of great international importance.
This is a great opportunity for tourism and recreation and it’s a really beautiful site that you can visit even now. It will become a major new open space for Rush andFingal and form part of the Fingal Coastal Way used by the community and visitors to Fingal.
Fingal County Council is now seeking the views of organisations and individuals with an interest in Drumanagh in relation to the Draft Conservation and Management Plan.
