Cork County Council says it has no plans to remove Ballycotton shipwreck

The wreck of the MV Alta in Ballycotton, Cork, as seen in February 2020.

There are no plans to remove a shipwreck that has languished off the Cork coast for almost four years, becoming a beacon for antisocial behaviour and fires.

Cork County Council said that it has completed its duties towards the MV Alta, which washed onto rocks near Ballycotton in East Cork after Storm Dennis struck Ireland in February 2020.
