There are hopes of a tourism boost for Headford with new guided tours at the medieval Franciscan Ross Errilly Friary
The community-led initiative will be launched on Monday as part of National Heritage Week.
The tours, led by Marcus Wynne will be held 4 times a day for the week with further tours to be scheduled after Heritage Week based on public demand.
A visiting unit, donated by local builder Al Callanan, has been transformed into a tour office by Mike Connell and Fergus Hassett of Headford Men’s Shed.

Local councillor Andrew Reddington says future development will hinge on the tourism amenity being respected
