Thursday July 12, 2007 09:52 by Old Head - Free the Old Head of Kinsale (086) 3004573
Ten years of denial of public access 2007 marks the tenth anniversary of the blocking off of public access from one of Ireland's most breathtaking scenic headlands - the Old Head of Kinsale. On August 26th next a tenth anniversary "People's Picnic" will be held to mark this shameful milestone and continue the struggle. In 1997 an ultra-exclusive millionaire's playground named the "Old Head Golflinks" was opened by Ashbourne Holdings at the Old Head of Kinsale, one of Ireland's most scenic headlands with a huge historic, archaeological and environmental importance. |

They don't need nor do we want the ordinary person out there.
It's a rich mans playground for the rich and famous.

For those not privileged to play at old head,there are other courses nearby to play such as kinsale and Bandon.

When the capitalists stole the Old Head of Kinsale from the public for their own use, they were supposed to allow public access but didn't in practice and of course the law in that case wasn't applied although it may be now.
Reported from The Examiner, Cork County Council have finally been asked to rule on it.
CORK County Council has been asked to rule on the amount of access which the public has to the Old Head of Kinsale.
A number of years back the Cork branch of the WSM ran a campaign against it's closure.
