    Hi
    I know that estate very well and it's a nice quiet estate with the exception of one particular family who have been causing a lot of anti social behaviour recently

    The behaviour appears to be mostly affecting the immediate neighbours of this family though and the gardai are well aware of the difficulties

    The people who I know who live in the estate have not been directly affected by the family but you should probably be aware of the issue.

    Personally, there are a number of houses currently for sale in that estate and I would not be put off from buying them because of this.

    That one family are well known through out Ennis as serious trouble. I would avoid that estate personally as I expect it won't be long before they attract more undesirables.

    Lots of houses in the estate are rented also so how long before decent folk move out and more of that ilk appear? Just one man's opinion...

    Sorry to bring up an old thread, but this is pretty relevant. I have also been looking at Dromard to buy. It seems like a nice area. I’m just wondering is this still a problem? I googled the address and a lot of local news reports came up which is never a good sign but they were all sourcing back to the same names causing the trouble.

    EDIT: Was thinking of wrong place. That family are gone are as far as I know.
