Tipperary County Council have announced that works will start on the Thurles Market Quarter Farm building in August.
Construction on the site located adjacent to Thurles Town Park will commence on Tuesday, August 6, 2024.
District Administrator Sharon Scully welcomed the project and said she looked forward to its development.
“The delivery of capital projects, such as the Thurles Market Quarter project, will see the redevelopment of an existing vacant building and the creation of a usable Town Centre space.
“Projects such as these demonstrate the commitment of Thurles Municipal District to support the development of towns and villages across the District and to pursue all available funding streams,” said Ms Scully.
The works will involve restoration, renovation and glazed extension to the existing agriculture building for café usage and the installation of a fixed roof covering and associated supporting structures for multi-functional uses.
The Department of Rural and Community Development approved funding of over €3 million for the Thurles Market Quarter Project with a substantial match funding element also provided by Tipperary County Council.
This funding is secured under the Rural Regeneration and Development Fund (RRDF).
This project has developed over several years with invaluable support and input from Thurles Farmers Market, MIC Thurles, and members of the public.
