Gorey is set to receive €7 million under the THRIVE Town Centre First Heritage Revival Scheme for the regeneration of Gorey Market House.
This historic building, the oldest in Gorey, will be transformed into a community and cultural hub. The project includes opening three arches on Main Street, creating a market plaza for events, and adding a café. Additionally, a new entrance to the adjacent graveyard will link to a heritage trail. Cllr Pip Breen was one of the project's key advocates, and he's been telling South East Radio News of his reaction to the funding: [audio wav="https://www.southeastradio.ie/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/PIP_CLIP_01.wav"][/audio] [audio wav="https://www.southeastradio.ie/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/PIP_CLIP_02.wav"][/audio]
