Top quality farmland in Tipperary

“A LOVELY farm, and some of the best quality land you’d ever walk,” says John Stokes of a farm at Marlhill, New Inn, Co Tipperary, situated cheek by jowl with Rockwell College.

It’s acknowledged locally as top-quality land, he says, with the best of it in a 60-acre block which is described as fine pasture land.

The 101-acre holding is due for auction on April 6, unless previously sold. The second lot, 40 acres of good quality ground, has a range of stables, a stone cut yard, and the remains of a substantial dwelling house.
