    Hi all,

    I hope this is a good place to ask, I was just wondering if anyone knew anything about the fate of Woodlands Golf Club near Coill Dubh in Kildare?

    Latest I could find is the lands were sold at auction in 2013 (via a search on this forum), I'm looking at a house which is at the back of the golf course and just want to make sure a developer isn't going to put a massive housing estate on the site, but I haven't been able to find any news about it since 2013.

    Any info much appreciated!

    As far as I remember it was going to be turned back into farmland, which will take a good few years because of all the stuff they use in the soil to keep up the golf course, an awful pity, I used to love the front nine on that course

    Thanks for the info, farmland (or a golf course) is definitely preferable to a housing estate!

    the problem you have is, once it is can be reused as farmland, Im sure there is nothing to stop the farmer looking for Planning if he wanted.
