Former 19th-century Waterford bank to be turned into bar

Bord Pleanála has upheld plans to convert a former 19th-century bank in Dungarvan into a bar and restaurant as West Waterford salutes the success of the county’s greenway project.

The 46km greenway on a former railway line linking Waterford and Kilmacthomas has attracted more than 283,000 visitors in the last two years, forcing a demand for increased accommodation and food businesses.
