At the Grand Hotel in Fermoy, Co Cork, last Friday, a 95-acre non-residential farm went under the hammer, producing a strong result.

Fresh from a highly successful public auction at the Vienna Woods Hotel in Glanmire on May 29, Michael Barry of Fermoy-based auctioneers Dick Barry & Son is to present an even more exciting prospect to the market on August 16 next — this time at the Grand Hotel in the centre of Fermoy.

East Cork has been all abuzz with land price activity this year so it’s not any wonder then that there should be some excitement leading up to the public auction of another fine-sized 117-acre chunk of this sought-after land.
