Kilkenny viewers will be tuning in to Nationwide on RTE One tonight, with Inistioge set to feature prominently on the episode.
The picturesque south Kilkenny village always looks top class, but perhaps never more so than this week, when its streets were gleaming for the visit of European adjudicators as part of Entente Florale competition. Volunteers, council staff and the wider community have worked relentlessly over recent months to prepare - weeding, litter picking and painting, as well as completing larger projects.
