‘A’ class apart in Rochestown

Tommy Barker hears of 14 new houses in the 850-unit Mount Oval village, coming to its last phase of building. 

Almost 20 years after breaking ground at Cork’s Mount Oval, on Clarke’s Hill in Rochestown, the all-encompassing 850-unit Mount Oval village is coming to its last phase of building, and with developers O’Flynn Construction still at the helm.

Launching are the first of 14 new builds - detacheds of 1,700 sq ft - in a section called Dunkerrin near Foxwood and by the relatively new (and already full) Rochestown National School.
