The final phase of works to Killarney House began in early January 2014 and the works, including the new extension, are now substantially complete. Work is continuing apace with the landscaping to the grounds and ornamental gardens. The contract for the interpretation phase is also advancing. I expect that the various elements of works will be completed in the coming months and it is intended that these amenities will be open to the public as soon as possible in 2016.
