Over 250 derelict sites and buildings in Cork City

More than 250 derelict or ‘at risk of dereliction’ sites and buildings have been identified in Cork City following a major survey.

There are currently 24 sites on the city’s Derelict Sites Register but that figure is set for a massive jump as the city council embarks on one of its most concerted efforts yet to tackle the problem.

It follows a major city-wide survey to identify the full extent of dereliction within the council’s administrative area.
