Limerick City and County Council have publicly posted their plans for the derelict Market House building in the Square in Kilfinane, where the intention is to renovate the building for future community use.
The building is listed on the record of protected structures, and the council foresee restoring the roof to its natural slate finish, and to retain and restore the red sandstone masonry walls. They also intend to keep all the stone authentic features of the building.
