Save Blarney
Blarney is a beautiful , tranquil village steeped in history and heritage from the Blarney Castle to the world renowned Blarney Woollen Mills . Both very important to local business . To build a Supermarket with affordable prices and more houses in this small community is not the answer . Blarney is a village and should remain so . The Blarney Woollen Mill lands should be protected as part of the ACA . There are many different amenities for both locals and tourists alike that this land could be used for . A park like the Gunpowder mills in Ballincollig that caters for both young and old with sufficient parking to allow this . Progress does not have to mean destruction and that's what building supermarkets and housing will mean for Blarney . Destroying Blarney village as we know it . Adding more congestion to an already busy village . The answer to the housing crisis and cheap supermarkets should never be at the detriment to a historical village like Blarney .
To take the history of Blarney and it’s heritage into consideration .
Blarney has something special and people come from all around the world to visit it . We understand progress when it is done for what is best for a community . More shops and housing is not the answer for Blarney
