Farmhouse adds value to 59 acres

EXCELLENT tillage ground is how auctioneer and agricultural consultant (and recently conferred Nuffield scholar) Michael Brady describes a 59-acre farm at Ballinbeg, Whitegate in Co Cork.

The land, which is just 16 miles from the Lee Tunnel, 10 miles from Midleton and two miles from Aghada, is located on a small peninsula in Cork harbour and is easily accessible.

Laid out in four fields, and after winter barley, the farm should attract tillage farmers in the region, but would be suitable for any agricultural activity, says the agent.
