LONGFORD GAA HAVE bought 32 acres next to Glennon Brothers Pearse Park for €1 million and plan to build a centre of excellence on the site.
The land is primarily zoned for agriculture but some is zoned for housing and industrial/commercial which Longford GAA said makes the deal “an attractive investment”.
“Longford GAA will immediately commence the appointment of a design team to progress with plans for the development of the property. This will serve as a centre of excellence for current and future generations of players throughout the county, both male and female,” Longford GAA said in a statement.
Albert Cooney, the Longford GAA chair, thanked officials in Croke Park and the Leinster Council “whose advice, assistance and support was crucial in delivering on what is the start of a very exciting venture for the county”.
