🗑️ Two New Bins Installed at Southgate! 👏A big thank you to Paul from Meath County Council for installing the two new bins at the bus stops at Southgate on the Dublin Road. 🙌These bins will definitely help with the management of litter in this areas, which have been persistent litter black spots. We hope that everyone using the bus stops will make good use of them and help us keep the area clean and tidy. 🌿We would also like to say many thanks to Senator Alison Comyn who raised this issue earlier this year and continued to follow up until the bins were installed.Now let’s us all do our bit and use the bins! ♻️#DroghedaTidyTowns #Southgate #SenatorAlisonComyn #Drogheda #MeathCountyCouncil #HelpkeepourcommunityLitterfree ...

Launch of New Biodiversity Study of Boyne Marsh and Alluvial WoodlandThe Heritage week event on Sunday at the Highlanes Gallery included the official launch of Tony Conaughy’s new publication, -Other Nations 3: Biodiversity at the Marsh & Alluvial Woodlands of the Boyne SAC, a study commissioned by Drogheda Tidy Towns and supported by the National Parks & Wildlife Service (NPWS) through the Peatlands & Natura Community Engagement Scheme.The event drew an excellent turnout, with attendees enjoying an accessible and engaging presentation from Tony Conaughy and Dr Geraldine Stout. Tony’s fieldwork for this study involved detailed surveying along the Boyne corridor , mapping habitats, recording species, and documenting the ecological importance of the river’s wetlands and woodlands. His research highlights rare alluvial woodland, described as “one of the rarest native woodland types in Ireland”, and the extensive wetlands that “store floodwaters and act like natural sponges”, improving water quality, reducing flood risk, and supporting climate resilience.Dr Stout added valuable historical context, showing how centuries of human activity have shaped the landscapes Tony documented. Together, their insights gave the audience a understanding of the natural and cultural significance of the Boyne SAC.The talk also introduced the new Biodiversity Map of the Boyne Estuary, created as part of the project. The map highlights key biodiversity areas, marshes, reed beds, wet woodlands, nesting sites, and wildflower zones and is designed especially for schools and youth groups as a practical learning resource.Thank you to Highlanes Gallery for hosting and supporting this important community event.Some copies of the book and the new Biodiversity Map are available now in Highlanes Gallery, and further ways to obtain them, including access to online versions , will be announced shortly.#BoyneSAC #BoyneEstuary #Biodiversity #AlluvialWoodland #Drogheda #DroghedaTidyTowns #Louth #HeritageWeek #NaturalHeritage #NPWS #HighlanesGallery #SchoolsAndNature #CommunityEngagement ...
