An adventurous vision for the future of Ballyfin estate

The Irish Times

A detailed plan has been drawn up for the future of Ballyfin estate in Co Laois, which is up for sale and includes a listed building on 600 acres. The vision for the future of the property was presented to the Department of Arts, Heritage, Gaeltacht & the Islands by a deputation from Laois County Council in recent days.bThe local authority wants the Department to buy the property put on the market by the Patrician Brothers who are no longer able to afford its upkeep.
