Legendary Irish King Brian Boru died #otd 1014 at the Battle of #Clontarf.
His death is pivotal in Geoffrey Keating (Seathrún Céitinn)’s Foras feasa ar Éirinn, a popular history both in Irish and English translation.
https://www.ria.ie/library/catalogues/special-collections/medieval-and-early-modern-manuscripts/foras-feasa-ar-eirinnA history which worked to put both Old English and Gaelic Irish in a good light, it portrayed Ireland as ruled by the English king by consent, not through conquest.

#Clontarf's landmark saltwater #swimming pool will remain open despite restaurant closure.

It's not a landmark whatsoever, as the public can't access it or even see it.It is basically a private backdrop for an out-of-place restaurant that got planning permission by feinting to allow public access (and which DCC, for no good reason, helped to restore).
See: https://dublininquirer.com/2019/10/30/a-renewed-effort-for-more-public-swimming-at-clontarf-baths/
No public money or help should go near this private facility.

The architects, interiors people and construction did a fantastic job on this place. But how an un-economically sustainable business that shut out the public from the public baths was ever allowed go in there is beyond me. Hopefully it will be resurrected as something more than another gated-space homage to the Celtic Tiger era #Clontarf #Dublin #baths #publicSpace

As coastal flood risk rises, the council has sought to defend property and residents to defend their landscape – and nothing’s been built. This challenge, epitomised by Clontarf, is cropping up all over Ireland. (Oct. 2022)
