“We just want a better quality of life for everybody living here” says Chair of Urlingford Town Team as the area’s Masterplan’s out for public consultation
More parking, improved walks and a range of other projects are being suggested
There are some big ideas in store for Urlingford but do they tally with what people of the area are hoping for and are they achievable?

Our Edwina Grace had been out to Urlingford in July 2022 to speak to some of those in the area (hear that here) and she returned last Friday to find out how people are feeling about how things are progressing.
She landed as the area’s two-day golf classic in aid of the Town Team and Emerald’s GAA Club was getting underway in nearby Rathdowney which in itself is showing the level to which various groupings are coming together to progress a united vision.
