Six two-bed, and 12 three-bed homes will be constructed by the end of the year by McStan Construction Limited under a turnkey arrangement.
Speaking to KCLR News, North Kilkenny Councillor Mary Hilda Cavanagh says there had been some problems with anti-social behaviour in the area.

She says neighbours there have suffered as a result of it being abandoned so this is great news for them and the residents of the estate.
