HE was looking for €10,000 per acre and locals pooh-poohed the notion, but auctioneer Christy Buckley pulled off a coup last week, when he sold a 62-acre farm at Shanrahan, near Clogheen, Co Tipperary.

LOOKING resplendent in our recent “summer”, this tillage and grazing farm at Clogheen, Co Tipperary, is about to go to auction in mid-month.

A LOVELY bit of ground is how Fermoy auctioneer, Micheal Barry, describes a 58-acre farm he’s selling in Clogheen at the moment.
