Coastal communities clean up at anti-litter awards
Youghal took the prize for the top large town in the county, and in the process managed to beat off the challenge again of last year’s runner-up, Fermoy. The east Cork town was awarded a total of 686 marks by the judges, nearly 30 ahead of its nearest rival.
People living in another seaside town are also celebrating their achievement. Kinsale won the medium town award with 566 marks, comfortably ahead of second placed Clonakilty at 494.
