Memorials and plaques are an often overlooked part of our cultural heritage. They identify and honour people, historic events and heritage landmarks of the county. Whilst we know that there are many such plaques, memorials and signs located throughout County Kildare, to date they have never been recorded. So, the Heritage Office of Kildare County Council is now undertaking an audit of these plaques and memorials, and we would like your help.
The information gathered in this audit will be made public and may be of interest to local historians, community groups and historical societies. It will also useful to inform policies about civic memorials in the county.
Please see the attached document on which you can submit details of memorials or plaques that you might be aware of in your area.
The from is also available on line at Kildare County Council website.
