Clohamon - Meat Factory

LauraF28 · 2023-07-13 20:05:43

Hi all, We're thinking of purchasing a home in Clohamon, Co.Wexford. This is very near the meat factory, and I believe there's a pig farm nearby as well. We've been to the area every day this week now and there's only been two occasions where the smell was bad. I have a few questions: Does the smell get very bad at times?…

Hi all,
We're thinking of purchasing a home in Clohamon, Co.Wexford. This is very near the meat factory, and I believe there's a pig farm nearby as well. We've been to the area every day this week now and there's only been two occasions where the smell was bad.

I have a few questions:

Does the smell get very bad at times? Excuse my ignorance - but what exactly is this from? Is it the factory burning the remnants of the animals?!

More importantly is the environment safe to live in/bring up little kids in? We have two small kids and plan to have another one. I'm worried that the smoke/pollution from the factory is toxic.

Is the water safe?

Excuse me if these questions are silly!!
Thanks

Closing as there's a duplicate thread over in Wexford.
