Kilkenny County Council has confirmed that construction has started on a new 42-unit mixed tenure housing scheme at Abbeyhill, Ladywell Street, Thomastown.

Located in front of the new Primary Care Centre and within walking distance of Thomastown Town Centre, this development will transform a 1.24-hectare disused site into a vibrant community, offering 42 social and affordable housing units.

First reported by Kilkenny Live, the housing units will feature a mix of 1, 2, 3, and 4-bedroom options to meet diverse housing needs. The project also includes roadways, parking, a bin store, and landscaped amenity areas. Hayes Higgins Partnership are the Consulting Engineers.

Ormonde Construction Ltd, based in Kilkenny City, has been appointed as the contractor under a Design Build Contract, with Brian Dunlop Architects acting for Ormonde Construction.
