Abstract The United Telephone Company opened its first exchange (with five subscribers) in 1880.1 United was taken over in 1882 by the Telephone Company of Ireland, which oversaw a slow growth to 500 lines in Dublin by 1988. The operation was acquired in 1893 by the National Telephone Company, which rapidly developed the network to encompass fifty-six exchanges by 1900. The Post Office, which operated the telegraph and feared revenue losses, began in 1893 slowly to invest in trunk lines and submarine cables. By 1908 the Post owned thirty-three exchanges to National’s eighty-five (Litton, 1961).

This chapter offers a comparative analysis of the divergent histories and symbolic associations of the neoclassical Stormont and General Post Office buildings, in Belfast and Dublin respectively. Completed in 1932, the Northern Irish Parliament buildings at Stormont were constructed as a bastion of unionism, designed according to the imperial neoclassical vision of Sir Arnold Thornely, but influenced by the idiosyncratic ideas of Sir James Craig, who is also buried on site in a manner analogous to classicizing hero cult. The General Post Office in Dublin, by contrast, although a colonial building in its 1818 origin, has become one of the most iconic representations of Irish independence as the headquarters of the 1916 Rising. Despite being bombed by British forces during the Rising, it has since been restored and divested of its colonial symbolism.

The purpose of this contribution is to re-evaluate Lugg, a somewhat unusual site and to assign it chronologically to the Late Bronze Age period. The site is in an area that is ‘facing the ocean’ to use Barry Cunliffe’s memorable phrase. This general area is well known to Barry, a region to which he has contributed so much over many years, both from the point of view of detailed Weldwork, interpretation and wider comparative studies. Time-wise the site fits into a main period of Barry’s interests and accordingly we oVer this contribution in appreciation of his academic work as well as the positive role that he has played in aiding the development of Irish archaeological studies. Lugg is one of at least a dozen archaeological sites located on Saggart Hill, about 18km southwest of Dublin city (figure 10.1). Prior to excavation in 1939 by Howard Kilbride-Jones, it was thought that the site with its enclosing bank and central mound might represent a disc-barrow. However, a preliminary survey (Kilbride-Jones 1950: 315) revealed that the mound had a surrounding ditch as well as the visible bank and this complex central monument was in turn surrounded by a bank and ditch, (enclosing an area about 37m in diameter), which alerted the excavator to the fact that the site might be more complex than previously envisaged (figure 10.2). Excavation subsequently revealed a complex range of features that were interpreted as representing three phases of activity and, based on the identification of the pottery, were assigned to the Iron Age period. Phase 1 representing the earliest activity consisted of a timber monument that was termed a ‘Sanctuary- Site’. The second phase was interpreted as representing a habitation site and the final phase was described as being a modified ‘henge’ monument (ibid. 1950: 316). The evidence for Kilbride-Jones’ earliest phase, which he referred to by the then popular term of a ‘sanctuary-site’, was located mainly beneath the central mound with further areas located in the wide level area (called a berm by Kilbride-Jones) between the inner and outer enclosures. The evidence consisted of three fireplaces, limited areas of paving and one hundred and sixty post- and stake-holes.

There was a well-established tradition of the Anglo-Irish gentry serving as officers in the British army and this continued into the war. The British army, pre-war, was very class conscious with officers requiring a private income. The costs associated diminished in wartime but officers were still generally from upper and middle-class backgrounds. As with other recruitment in Ireland, officer recruitment was politicised. Officer Training Corps units pre-war were, almost exclusively, at Protestant schools and universities, which meant that few Catholics presenting themselves for commissions could claim previous military training. The War Office quickly commissioned large numbers of Ulster Volunteer officers, who had enlisted with their men in September 1914. Nationalists felt that they were less favoured by the War Office though the National MPs who sought commissions did not do so before 1915. Lieutenant General Sir Lawrence Parsons established a cadet company in the 16^th (Irish) Division but this did not assuage Nationalist concerns. An Officer Selection Board was established in Dublin in the Summer of 1915 and, throughout the remainder of the war, it had some success in attracting Catholic recruits for officer training.

Abstract The man and the moment came together in the aftermath of the General Election in June 1987. While the interrupted Criminal Justice Bill resumed its progress towards the statute book; while the committees and inquiries listed in the last chapter were busy garnering evidence; the Home Secretary stood back and took stock. Douglas Hurd had already been Home Secretary for nearly two years. Coming to the Home Office from the thankless assignment of Northern Ireland Secretary, his first Cabinet post, he had spent fifteen months’ apprenticeship as a Minister of State at the Home Office between 1983 and 1984. With the uncertainties of the General Election and the formation of the new Government behind him, it was a pensive man who returned to his room in Queen Anne’s Gate on 11 June to study the comprehensive brief drawn up by the Permanent Under-Secretary for incoming ministers after each Election.
