Two former tree plantations totalling 170 acres up for auction

The lots consist of a brace of farms in Kildare and Laois

Lot 1 is a 64-acre farm at Oldtown Donore, near Naas.

Coming up for public auction on Thursday, February 22, at Lawlor’s Hotel in Naas, County Kildare, are a brace of farms in Kildare and Laois totalling 170 acres.

While it is unusual for two large Leinster holdings such as these to go under the hammer on the same day, what is even more unusual is that both of them consist of land that was formerly forestry.
