Plan for Cork's first Traveller horse grazing site backed

The ISPCA and the Department of Agriculture have backed plans for Cork’s first Traveller horse grazing project.

A 35-acre site west of the city, on the northern banks of the River Lee at the Carrigrohane end of the Lee Road, has been identified to facilitate the grazing of up to 20 horses owned by 10 families.

It will be a ‘grazing only’ project with no permanent structures on site.
