Golden Vale land parcel guiding at over €20k/acre

Golden Vale land parcel guiding at over €20k/acre

For sale jointly with Clonmel-based auctioneers PF Quirke & Co. and REA Stokes & Quirke, a small 13.5-acre holding just outside the South Tipperary town is already generating a good deal of interest.
'It went on the market last Friday,' said joint selling agent Pat Quirke of PF Quirke & Co., who adds that the owners of the land are selling a house separately.
'We've already had a good number of enquiries and I'd expect there to be continued good interest in this property.'
The location is very close to Clonmel – across the road from Clonmel Racecourse and a couple of kilometres from the town centre.
As such, it makes for a very convenient piece of property, either as an outside farm or even for a hobby farmer.
'It's a very nice plot of ground,' added Mr Quirke. 'It's all in grass currently and it's in a very fertile seam of land. It's proper Golden Vale land.'
The holding's proximity to the town and the presence of one-off housing immediately close by would also suggest planning potential for a house.
The price guide of €275,000 (€20,400/acre) is a reasonable expectation.

From Dundalk to Texas: supply-chain tech firm Overhaul lands €90m in new funding round

The company, co-founded in 2016 by Palmerstown-born CEO Barry Conlon and Dundalk-based David Broe, has an Irish office in Dundalk with 40 people employed there but is now headquartered in Austin, Texas. With customers such as Microsoft, Acer, Bristol-Myers Squibb and others in tech and healthcare, the firm offers risk monitoring, real-time visibility and compliance tracking for shipments and logistics. When something happens that shouldn't happen... we're on top of it Some of their services have helped track and recover stolen cargo. Earlier this year, the company claimed to have helped recover $1.6m in stolen electronics in Texas by supplying location data and photos to investigating police. 'When something happens that shouldn't happen, like when a door is opened where it shouldn't be opened, or [a truck driver is] going in the wrong direction... we're immediately on top of it,' Mr Conlon previously told the Wall Street Journal. Overhaul has raised $215m to date. The company employs over 600 people globally and has recently acquired Michigan-based FreightVerify, which has over 60 staff and counts major car manufacturers as its clients. 'Our engineering and development efforts are focused on solving real-world problems, and this investment helps us accelerate that mission,' said Mr Conlon. 'The truth is that visibility is a data stream, not a standalone solution or app, and how we harness that stream is what truly sets us apart.' The news was also welcomed by industry group Endeavor Ireland, which counts Mr Conlon and Mr Broe as members. Barry and Dave have committed fully to our 'pay it forward' ethos 'This double milestone is a powerful example of how Irish founders are among the world's most talented, building industry-leading, globally competitive companies,' said U2 guitarist The Edge (real name David Evans) who is chair of Endeavor Ireland. 'Working with some of the world's biggest brands, Barry and Dave are solving complex logistical challenges while scaling in multiple countries and remaining a local employer here at home. 'Since becoming Endeavor entrepreneurs just last year, Overhaul has experienced strong growth – and Barry and Dave have committed fully to our 'pay it forward' ethos.'

Medieval Cork unearthed for city's Culture Night

REMINDERS of Cork City's medieval past unearthed from the site of a €25m student block on the city's most dereliction-blighted thoroughfare, the North Main St, are to go on display as part of an 'art meets artefacts' month-long exhibition, with talks and creative displays. The Beneath our Feet interpretation of finds from a winter 2021/22 dig, going down 3m to reveal 12 medieval buildings and artefacts at Nos 92 to 95 North Main St, opens for Culture Night, September 19, at the street's St Peter's Church — itself built on medieval remains. Lost and found It combines visual art, oral history and talks, and includes an installation by the award-winning writer and artist Sarah Baume, amongst others. Student accommodation scheme Coleman Court at 92 - 96 North Main Street is on the site of a significant dig and dive into Cork's medieval past. Picture Larry Cummins Beneath our Feet comes exactly 30 years after a major exhibition of finds from the excavation by O'Callaghan Properties (OCP) of the North Main St shopping centre site/Kyrl's Quay in 1995, which revealed 13th-century city gateways, walls, tower, slipway, and unearthed 10,000 artefacts. Ironically, the North Main St shopping centre currently lies largely mothballed in recent years since anchor Dunnes withdrew, pending redevelopment by purchasers BMOR, with just its multi-storey carpark in daily use. The same London-based BMOR successfully redeveloped the site across the street for the 279-student bedspace €25m Coleman Court development, which also yielded valuable finds to be outlined in the forthcoming Beneath our Feet collaboration with writers, artists, and archaeologists. Delivered by Vision Contracting post-dig, BMOR's purpose-built Coleman Court in a four-to-seven-storey block got its planning in 2020, with later design tweaks. Cork City Council got a 10-year affordable (half rent) beds deal for 16 units until 2033. Firemen battling the fire at Munster Furniture Store, North Main Street in November 2008. Pic Diane Cusack/Provision. The site previously accommodated the Munster Furniture Centre, destroyed by an inferno in November 2008, and which lay idle for 15 years. Also long idle, derelict, and dangerous are Nos 62-65 North Main St, now in Cork City Council ownership under the derelict sites legislation, having been placed on the Derelict Sites Register in 2015. A City Hall spokesperson said it was hoped to have construction work on the four-buildings underway in 2026. Protesters gathered outside long-derelict buildings at 62-65 North Main Street in Cork. A query as to whether an archaeological dig will be required at this contentious eyesore site has been addressed to City Hall. Meanwhile, Cork City Council archaeologist Ciara Brett said: 'We know that archaeology interests the Cork public but, due to the rescue nature of the projects we engage in, they are rarely able to interact with the material and outcomes directly. 'By engaging with artists, some of whom have archaeological experience, we hope to interpret these narratives, of excavation, discovery, of imagining the past, of experiencing the materials from the past, telling both our own stories and the stories of Cork's past as understood from the evidence we have uncovered.' Ms Brett, along with artist and archaeologist John Sunderland, got Creative Ireland funding and Arts Council funding for the Beneath our Feet project's interpretation via visual arts and oral history with listening excerpts as part of the month-long exhibition at St Peter's Church close to the excavation site. 'It is, therefore, a fitting venue, as similar archaeology will literally be beneath the feet of anyone visiting the exhibition'. Lane Purcell Archaeology conducted the dig at Nos 92-96 North Main St to a depth of 3m below street level, and 12 identifiable buildings from the medieval period — including stake-built, post and wattle, and sill-beam timber houses — were recorded and preserved in the waterlogged lower levels alongside organic materials such as wood and leather, as well as plant and insect remains, some of them now extinct. Foundation piling/construction is a modern version of old post and beam buildings which would have been on this site in the 1300s 'The site is a valuable window on the lives of medieval Cork people, offering evidence of everyday life and activities, as well as indicators of the wider environmental conditions from the 12th to the 14th centuries and beyond,' say the Beneath our Feet team which includes Sara Baume, artist and writer; John Sunderland, mixed media visual artist and archaeologist; Matt Durran, glass and ceramics sculptor; Penny Johnston, archaeobotanist, research scientist, and oral historian; and Eva Kourela, entomologist, researcher, and illustrator.
