One of the most substantial land sales in north Cork this year is due up for auction some time in October, after a preliminary launch a month ago.

A FARM for sale at Kilcolman, Kinsale, may be a good test of the new year market in this tillage farming area — especially after neighbouring land made strong prices in 2010.

Gardaí say they are treating as suspicious the death of a 92-year-old man found at his Co Limerick home on Friday.

Why would you leave a house as good at this? It seems hard to have to give up your bespoke property for the sake of a career, but that’s what has happened here at Kilcolman Park, in Bandon, Co Cork.
