Tipperary Garda Stations sell for €293,000
Garda stations in Tipperary that were sold off by the state in recent years raised €293,000 according to the OPW.
Grangemockler, Dundrum and Ballinure stations were put on the market by the Office of Public Works following a decision in 2012 to amalgamate rural stations.
The stations no longer needed were sold at auction and by private treaty, and some were signed over to community groups.
