Tidy Towns plans discussed

Early works on the Kilcullen Tidy Towns agenda were discussed at the recent meeting of Kilcullen Community Action.

They included the need to deal with brambles on the Town Hall side of the riverbank, which threatening to overwhelm the original landscaping.

"The place was planted beautifully at the beginning," Noel Clare remarked. "But now this stuff is taking over."

There was some discussion on the best way of tackling the problem, and Ray Kelly said he would take advice on it.

Ray will also look at the possibility of re-painting the wood tops on the bridge railings, which have become very weathered.

It was suggested that using a different colour than the original varnish might be considered. The job will be done in conjunction with repainting the street flower tubs for the spring.
