Cattle mart report: Macroom’s charity event demonstrates true meaning of the season

Goodwill and good humour were the order of the day, as Macroom mart held a charity auction in aid of Temple Street Children’s Hospital, Crumlin Children’s Hospital as well as for Marymount Hospice.
The top seller at the charity auction was a Limousin heifer donated by the O’Flynn family, Coachford. This animal weighed 750kg, with celebrity auctioneer Briege Corkery bringing down the hammer at €2,600.
