Observations

Tallaght Village & history

The Tallaght village ACA needs proactive heritage auditing and support to bring it up to the standard you would expect of the County Town and an expemplar ACA.

There is a proliferation of take aways, large obtrusive neon signs and a move away from the traditional style buildings and architecture on Main St and Main Road.

The village should have a community led design statement and focused enforcement to drive up the compliance to guidelines and levels of compliance.

Tallaght also needs a series of street art that depicts local heritage - people, times such as the monastic period, the Leinster Road Races, the many mills on the Dodder, the farms, the sheepdog trials, the ploughing competitions, the point-to-points, the famous writers.

Our history is not celebrated in an overt, public way which would be a permenant and positiuve educational and artistic way to share and recognise the history of Tallaght - back to the Parthalons.
