Council to acquire 106 acres for green amenity in Cork

City Hall is at a very advanced purchase stage in acquiring Inchigaggin House and lands, previously associated with well-known businessman Richard Wood, who lives nearby at the Rockrohan House estate.
Cork City Council has not commented on its interest, or indicated what it will use the land and house for, but it is likely to include enhanced public amenity/greenway uses, tying in with long-term local authority plans to link the city and Ballincollig along the riverway for amenity value, as much as possible.
