Re: 100 years of steele's terrace
It was certainly published, but according to the Ennis Bookshop it has completely sold out and no further copies are available. We do have some copies in the library for lending http://opac.clarelibrary.ie/search/q?au ... rchscope=1

If you are a member of a public library service anywhere in Ireland you can request a book from any other library. See Borrowbooks (http://www.borrowbooks.ie/) for more info (especially the FAQS link on that page).

Re: 100 years of steele's terrace
I seem to knock myself off - try again - - perhaps you could get details from Clare Champion newspaper - - I remember seeing coverage of the occasion in the paper. Or maybe the book could be donated to Clare Library - History page. Is there a website for Ennis parish ?? - maybe a message there might bring results. Local publications are sold out very fast.

thanks everyone.still no joy on this one though unfortunately.
does anyone know was steele's terrace called something else originally?
i can't seem to find it on 1901 or 1911 census.

Re: 100 years of steele's terrace
They're celebrating the 100th anniversary of Steele's Terrace this year, so it just may not have existed at all for the 1901 and 1911 censuses. The OSI map shows that Steele's Terrace stretches along beside the Gort Road http://maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,533905,678049,7,10 so the area may well have been known as that before the construction of the terrace itself.

Hi Lenc
According to "Ennis Architectural Heritage", part of the National Heritage Inventory by An Foras Forbatha, 1981
Newbridge Road
Beside the Court House is Steel's (sic) Terrace, a terrace of thirty, two-bay, two-storied houses grouped in tens. A date stone on the first house records that the houses are 'Ennis Urban District Council Artizan (sic) Dwellings, foundation stone laid by W.H.K. Redmond M.P. 18th Jan 1912'.
This must rate as serendipity - I bought this book yesterday in a second hand bookshop in Blackrock, Co.Dublin while searching desperately for another out of print book - Brian Ó Dálaigh's "Ennis in the 18th century" one of the very early Maynooth local history series. Is there anybody who might be willing to sell it - though I can't imagine anyone parting with it willingly! It is available to me in the NLI and the Gilbert, but like a child I want one of my own"
