The Music of Clare project: Part 1 - Traditional Music of County Clare
- The main aim of the project is to present a sample of the rich musical culture of County Clare. The initial stage of the project concentrates on the traditional music of the county and features traditional tunes associated with County Clare, played by musicians who are from the county or who have lived in it for many years.

Photographic Survey of Medieval Churches and Graveyards of Clare - new collection in Foto
- The photos record in detail the walls of each structure, inside and out – wherever possible – and show their overall condition as well as recording items of particular interest such as doorways, windows and other architectural features.

Clare Gmaps - New maps system, based on Google Maps
- The Clare GMaps are based on the Google Map system, allowing Google Maps and satellite views to be overlaid with historical maps of Clare from 1842. This new system uses many of the same controls as Google Maps, and we have linked it to the thousands of pages on this website dealing with the archaeology, history and administrative divisons of County Clare.

List of Freeholders, County Clare, 1821 (c. 35,000 names)
- With the addition of the 1821 List of Freeholders, over 35,000 names of Clare people from the early 19th Century have been added to this website.
