CICES Ireland & Northern Ireland region tour of Lough Foyle shoreline, Magilligan in County Londonderry. To mark the commencement of the first survey in Ireland 200 years ago, the region put on a free visit and tour of the Lough Foyle shoreline – complete with a commemorative cake. It was here where Ordnance Survey carried out the mapping of the Lough Foyle Baseline – stretching eight miles from Magilligan to the South Base Tower at Ballykelly. A regional committee was then held at the Drummond Hotel in Ballykelly. The region would like to thank all those who attended.
The next webinar will be on 24 September 1-2 pm from Built Intelligence on ‘The Notice Provisions in the JCT Contracts’.
Other webinars planned come from Birketts, Archor, Quigg Golden, NUAR, DWF, Tomorrow’s Leaders, Fortfield & Brown, and GeoAccess.
