Architect Mark Price has carried out a survey of farm structures around Ireland which have benefitted from the Traditional Farm Buildings Grant Scheme, winner of a Europa Nostra European Heritage Award in 2024. This is an exhibition of the results of Mark's survey. In each case, he has tried to illustrate something of the relationship of these structures to the landscape. Farming has shaped - and been shaped by - the Irish landscape in distinctive ways, forming patterns of enclosure which have venerable histories. The Grant Scheme aims to preserve essential elements of this history by ensuring the ongoing viability of structures for future generations of farmers. Organised by the European Parliament Liaison Office in Ireland, together with The Heritage Council. The Heritage Council, in partnership with the Department of Agriculture, Food, and the Marine, operates the Traditional Farm Buildings Grant Scheme. The scheme's principal objective is to ensure that traditional farm buildings and other related structures that contribute to the character of the landscape and are of significant heritage value are conserved in active agricultural use.
