Huge, 937-acre forestry holding sold in Co Kerry

This holding vastly exceeds the average forestry land parcel (about 8ha) in Ireland, and such larger sizes could become more common.

“All I can say is that it is healthily above the guide price.”

So says Edinburgh-based selling agent, Patrick Porteous, of UK forestry specialists, John Clegg & Co, of a 937-acre (379ha) forestry land portfolio in Kerry that he is selling jointly with Ganly Walters.
