Old Abbey is work of art

YOU should take a walk around by the Old Abbey and you’ll get quite a surprise.

For too long, it was plagued with graffiti and dirt and was turning into a dumping ground.

But a couple of volunteers took on the task of cleaning it up and now the graffiti is gone and a number of the buildings have had a paint job.

It is now a pleasure to walk down here and what a spot it is going to become when the Fleadh arrives next year.
