From 

Proposed Natural Heritage Areas

Natural Heritage Areas (NHAs) are designated to conserve and protect species and habitats of national importance in Ireland and are established under the Wildlife Acts.

NHAs normally relate to habitats that are considered to be ecologically important or host flora and fauna species whose habitats are considered to need protection. These can include species listed under the European Habitats and Bird Directives. In South

Dublin County there are seven proposed NHAs (pNHAs), which were originally identified on a non-statutory basis but have not been formally designated. A process is underway by the National Parks and Wildlife Service to resurvey and formally designate some pNHA sites as NHAs on a country-wide basis. In the meantime, a degree of protection is afforded to pNHAs under County Development Plans and other environmental protection schemes. All pNHAs in the County are shown on the Development Plan maps which accompany this written statement.

To read:  

13. St Maelruan’s Terrace (Goose Park), Old Bawn Road, Tallaght

As one of the first multiple-unit residential developments in the locality, this terrace also represents a significant example of early urban planning in south Dublin. Although their originally long rear gardens have been truncated and amalgamated by later commercial enterprises, the retention of the road-fronting gardens as well as the lack of high-rise or particularly high-density development in the immediate vicinity has meant that they retain much of their original character after almost a century of residential use. The six houses retain a discreet and distinctive appearance despite being surrounded by later twentieth-century houses. By virtue of their rarity as historic structures in the immediate area, they provide an insight into the local built environment and social history.

The repeating features of the site which typify its uniform character, including the enclosed front gardens, shape of window-openings, wall materials, brick chimney stacks and roof materials collectively lend a great deal to the overall historic character of the area.

Red Cow and Woodfarm Cottages form two terraces of eight, two-storey structures having ground levels of snecked, squared granite construction with red brick detail and the upper floors of rough render painted in various colours. The traditional palette of materials includes natural slate pitched roofs with black clay ridge tiles and brick chimneys. Front-facing gables are used to punctuate the two rows and the houses front onto the road with most of the original wrought-iron railings forming the boundary of small gardens which provide unifying set-back from the road. A notable survival of these two early twentieth-century residential terraces are the original rear lanes and many of the linear rear plots to each house.

The brick-built houses, some of which are painted or rendered, and some retain the original exposed surface finish have pitched slate roofs, slightly overhanging eaves with timber eaves detail and projecting gabled entrance porches with round-headed front entrance door openings, granite plinths to the brick corners and entrance steps where the slope of the street requires. There are low, rendered replacement walls which form a solid edge to the street between the incorporate gateways to rear plots, some of which have been developed with extensions to the original house or sub-divided to provide separate residential sites behind the street-fronting dwelling.

The group of alternating single and two-storey, semi-detached houses is situated on the north bank of the Grand Canal and on the opposite of the Ninth Lock Road from the eighteenth-century waterway structure which gives the main road leading north from the centre of Clondalkin its name. The early twentieth-century houses have squared granite walls with cut granite lintel and doorcase detail to ground level while the gables and first floor walls are built of buff-coloured brick. Gable apexes to the Ninth Lock Road-facing pair of semi-detached houses have distinctive painted timber-framing that provides further decorative embellishment to these more prominently-located dwellings. Roofs are pitched and all are clad with fibre-cement tiles, having slightly overhanging eaves with timber verge detail. There are original wrought-iron railings to boundaries of some front gardens on Ballymanaggin Lane although most have been replaced with low, rendered block-built walls which form a solid edge to the street in front of the houses and incorporate gateways to rear plots, many of which have been developed with extensions to the original house.

They have linear front gardens and having limited survival of wrought-iron boundary railings. The roof-form of the cottages alternates between pitched and hipped, providing subtle variety to the slate-clad roofs of the group. There are brick chimneys, some of which have been rendered, squared granite-built walls with projecting gabled entrance porches. Window openings are uniformly-arranged, but with a number of discrete variations in form with generally tall, narrow opening complimented by wider flat or segmental cut-granite lintels and heavy granite sills. The main entrance doorways have semi-circular fanlights over the quarry-faced granite lintel and this use of local building stone creates a distinctive architectural style in the area.
