A fine 164ac farm has come up for sale near Glenmore, Co Kilkenny. This large property is at Knockbrack and is being sold by auctioneers PN O'Gorman.

This is one of the largest farms to have come up for sale in the county this year. There is no residence on the land – as a result it will be of great interest to farmers keen to expand their holdings.

In addition, it’s an intensive farm holding with plenty of dairy farming and tillage, including potatoes. The guide price is €15,000 to €17,000/ac.

Lot 1 will be 74ac, partly in permanent pasture and partly in tillage.

Lot 2 will be 90ac in two divisions. The majority of this section has been in tillage in recent years.
