South Dublin County Council and Coillte in conjunction with Failre Ireland plan <br />
to turn the grounds of both Massey's Estate and the Hellfire Club into a major<br />
tourist attraction,, including a large 'interpretive centre' with a restaurent <br />
and shop; a sky-bridge that extends over the road between the two grounds and<br />
a car park for 300 cars; all in a part of South Dublin forest of great natural<br />
beauty and with huge local and natural heritage value for its flora and fauna,<br />
recreational value and archaeological sites.<br />
<br />
People Before Profit in Dublin Rathdown have started a campaign in the Rathdown<br />
area in solidarity with The Hellfire Club Action Group and Friends of Masseys Wood<br />
to save this natural wilderness from over-development. We want development of trails<br />
and transport links so that more people can enjoy this natural amenity while<br />
protecting this fragile environment from commercial exploitation<br />
<strong><br />
People Before Profit Dr Peadar O'Grady said:</strong><br />
<br />
<blockquote style='padding: 0.5em; background-color: #CCFFCC;'><em>"If we allow commercial development here it may well open up other wooded areas<br />
such as Ticknock to commercial development or building projects, which would<br />
be a tragedy. We can learn a lot from other campaigns like Bulloch Harbour and how<br />
they used People Power"</em></blockquote><br />
