Funding for Mullaghreelan and other Kildare woods

Trail surfaces in Mullaghreelan Wood near Kilkea are to be improved thanks to an allocation of €30,000 from the Department of Rural & Community Development, writes Brian Byrne. The wood is a popular spot with many families in south Kildare.

Other woods in the county that will benefit from general improvement work include Donadea Forest Park, Killinthomas, Moore Abbey, Mullaghreelan, and Rahin.

The money is part of an overall €4 million investment in Coillte-managed recreation sites around the country, which will be used for maintenance and developing new infrastructural works.

The funding has been welcomed by Kildare South Fine Gael TD and Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Martin Heydon.
