    I heard it was knocked by the company who put in the new sewerage pipes along the road and that there was lots of complaints and the company are being made restore it.

    Thanks for replying I know who you're talking about, the less said the better ;) It was probably knocked down at the time they had that section closed off to traffic. I wonder did the Council sanction the demolition or did the 'Company' in question just knock it down off their own bat.

    Was it part of the 'Famine Wall' ? There are so many questions, where's the stone gone ? where's the brick the 'blind windows' were made of ? How are they going to restore it, there's nothing left to restore it's completely gone. It's a sad day for Clara.

    The Celtic Tiger with all it's money cannot restore what was part of Folklore.
