Cloughjordan to become site of first Irish 'eco-village'

The Irish Times

Cloughjordan, a small village in north Tipperary, is to become the site of Ireland's first ecologically friendly village. The development of the eco-village will involve the construction of up to 100 houses powered by solar energy, an organic farm and an enterprise centre. The project will see 70 acres close to the centre of Cloughjordan being split into three zones of equal size for residential, agricultural and natural spaces.
