Cork Co. Council has announced that Mallow Castle and Spa House will be shining green for St. Patrick’s Day, while the Town Hall will be festively decorated for the occasion.

Mayor of the County of Cork, Cllr Mary Linehan Foley, said, “St Patrick’s Day is poignant this year, as our usual parades and street celebrations are re-imagined for a second year. This past year has proven we are adaptable and innovative, we are a community that cares and looks out for one another, and while the battle to beat this virus continues, we find new ways to mark special occasions. The creativity of our local communities is, as always, outstanding.” Further details are available at www.corkcoco.ie
