€650,000 allocated for repair of sea wall in Youghal

The 40-metre section at Lighthouse Hill, Youghal, was deemed to be unstable last October, just as restoration work on an adjacent eight-metre segment was completed.

The scenic area, close to Youghal lighthouse, runs parallel to a 30-metre drop onto rocks. Popular with walker and joggers, it serves as the main link between the town centre and Youghal’s Front Strand.
