The first land sale of 2020 in Kilkenny was a successful one for Castlecomer based auctioneer, Joe Coogan.
A large crowd descended on the auction room at Ballycomey House, Castlecomer for the sale of 21 acres, located four miles north of Castlecomer with good roadside frontage. Bidding was brisk and the land was sold in three individual lots.
