Snug new home? Get yourself to the Bride on time

IT really is all about the bride for Marcella Ware — she’s just about to relocate from the West Waterford home she built on the banks of the River Bride, moving with her husband Fergal to be closer to the sea and to her Bijou Bridal business in Tramore.

Snug new home? Get yourself to the Bride on time

The coincidence of bride business niche, and Bride river setting is just one of those things that life throws up, but as the couple prepare to decamp, they’re leaving a place done up to the nines, and a job well done.

Fergal Murphy has family farm roots in this Knockanore location near Cappoquin, Tallow and Lismore, and the land here, by the River Bride’s banks has been in his family’s ownership for years. The area, just a half a mile or so upriver from where the Bride meets the Blackwater is home to several large country estates, near Ballynatray House, Strancally Castle, and the land Snugborough’s now built on is close to the old lodge of the Headborough estate, with the house and its tall entrance pillars still standing.
