Judge urges sides to reach deal after rowing club loses right-of-way claim

A rowing club has effectively been shut down after its members lost a claim for a right-of-way across farmland.

A magnificent new clubhouse for Fossa Rowing Club, established 123 years ago, was opened on Killarney’s Lough Leane in 2012.

However, its barrister Stephen O’Halloran told Judge Terence O’Sullivan that the club was effectively closed after a dispute that has been continuing for two decades.
