Drug problem in Enniscorthy?



After disgracefully being left idle for more than a decade the old Dunnes Stores premises on Rafter Street has been undergoing renovation in recent weeks. The anchor tenant (the property owners themselves) Grant's Pharmacy are tearing away with a massive new shop - only yards away from Sam McCauley's existing large outlet - while directly across from the new development the latter is said to be opening a second outlet! Three pharmacies within yards of each other - you couldn't make it up.


Other tenants being talked about for the old Dunnes premises include the library - refurbished at a cost of €150,000 as recently as 2011 - and the reasoning behind any such move is mind-boggling but leave it to the Council to find a way of wasting more money.
