Big interest in auction of traditional farmstead

An undisturbed, traditional farmstead at Ballinabortagh, Carrignavar, Co Cork, will go to auction on Feb 20 next, as an executor’s sale.

The 51-acre property, the estate of the late William Buckley, is being sold through Dan Fleming, of Fleming Auctioneers, who expects good interest in the property.

Laid out in old field pattens, and with a lot of the land neglected, it’s nonetheless too good for forestry, he says, and would respond well to clearing and the reseeding of one half.
