Major model makeovers planned for tiny towns and villages

It’s a really big facelift for four really small towns.

Leading tourist destination, the Model Village in Clonakilty, Co Cork, a fully-scaled model of four of West Cork’s best-known towns, has closed for three months for a major revamp and renovation ahead of its 20th anniversary next summer.

Expert model makers have now begun work on what will be the single largest refurbishment in its history.
