A total of 80 projects could be undertaken to upgrade a coastal fort in Cork Harbour as a major tourist attraction, but Cork County Council, which owns it, can't afford the €30m needed to carry out the works.
Instead, a council-run company has been set up to operate and promote Camden Fort Meagher in Crosshaven and is looking at prioritising seven projects, which have a price tag of approximately €4m.
