Local Government
Collection
Listed below
are artefacts in the Clare Museum
collection related to local government in Clare.
Relevant to this list are items relating to the County
Grand Jury system, an early organisation responsible
for the administration of the county which was
displaced by another authority introduced under the
Local Government Act 1898, the Clare County
Council. This Act also led to the formation of the
Ennis Urban District Council, a body that succeeded
the long defunct Corporation of Ennis and the Ennis
Town Commissioners. Ennis Urban District Council was
recently renamed Ennis Town Council.
