A 73ac grassland farm with a modern cattle yard is one of a number of quality farms due to be sold over the coming weeks by Westmeath auctioneers James L Murtagh.
That farm is at Brideswell, Athlone, Co Roscommon. The land is laid out in three separate divisions but they are all close by. This means the farm could be of interest for setting up a new dairy platform, auctioneer Padraig Murtagh says. Half of the land has been reseeded in recent years and is good-quality pasture. The fields are bounded by stone walls and good hedging.
Farm yard
The yard is designed for easy handling of cattle. There is a four-bay slatted shed with centre feed passage, a three-bay hayshed with four-bay lean-to, a silage slab in good condition and a handling yard with a chute and head gate and a holding area. The sheds are newly rewired.
