“ This settlement is likely to have originated as a small cluster of dwellings located around the road junction. Subsequent expansion has in the main, taken the form of linear development along the constituent roads, and two housing developments by Offaly County Council and Bord na Mona. The existing settlement is low rise and low density, with a number of different building styles in evidence ” Ref:[1]
