North Cork plan includes Mallow-Fermoy greenway

A new greenway and a woodland recreational area are among a range of ambitious new amenity, cultural, and tourism projects being pursued by a dynamic new lobby group launched in north Cork.

Mallow Development Partnership, Mallow Chamber, Avondhu Blackwater, and the local enterprise office announced last night that they have joined forces in order to promote Mallow more aggressively. The group said it will work with public representatives to secure key EU funding for the town and to deliver on their vision for the area.

They have already presented proposals to the Mallow Kanturk Municipal District and Cork County Council for projects to be built around the town’s historic hub — Spa House, the Clock House, Town Hall, and Mallow Castle.
