Cahir Castle
Cahir Tourist Office needs to be spruced up before the tourist season kicks off, Tipperary County Council’s monthly meeting was told by a local councillor.
The appeal came from Independent Cllr Andy Moloney just after the council’s elected members approved extending the lease of the Castle Street building that houses the tourist office to Fáilte Ireland for another two years.
Cllr Moloney said he was worried about the tourist office’s upkeep and asked was it Fáilte Ireland’s or Tipperary County Council’s responsibility to maintain the building?
“It definitely needs attention. The window jams are falling into disrepair and the gutters need cleaning. It’s not very attractive or encouraging for tourists to come into it,” he complained.
Tipperary County Council senior executive officer Ger Walsh said maintenance was usually the responsibility of the leasee but promised to follow up on what Cllr Moloney highlighted and revert back to him.
