The recent flooding is a real concern for residents and businesses alike here in Cork. Hopefully the worst is over for all concerned. I visited the point where the river Lee divides this morning. Parts of the surrounding area the Lee Road and the Mardyke Arena UCC – are still submerged. The photographs below don’t begin to capture the level of destruction from this flooding. We’ve had to leave our offices to work from home due to water cuts but its a minor inconvenience compare to others who have suffered and continue to suffer greatly. We offer all the residents and businesses alike our best wishes in the coming weeks as we approach Christmas.
