As said before the schools are good Thurles is a 10 minute drive away with Dunnes and Tesco and a small bit of night life Templemore has s very nice park including fishing It's ok. A few too many skangers and scobies for its size but I guess a lot of rural towns are like that now

Grab All Association wrote: » It's still there. TaylorMade bought Triplex Ireland's division in the late 80s. One of the few factories left in Mid-Tipperary. It makes windscreens for boats and I must say that in 2007 /2008 I was expecting it to be one of the first businesses to shut down. There must be a great demand for boat glass. I have lived just outside the town for over 10 years. I am originally from Thurles. Like most towns Templemore has its problems and a few undesirables but I find they tend to keep to themselves.
Taylor Made Glass & Systems is an approved glass supplier to Bombardier and TFL, passing rigorous quality audits along the way. Taylor Made glass has been seen on the Central Line for more than 15 years. The large side window glass is produced in one of the largest vertical tempering furnaces in the world.

Have our local respresentives forgotten the town exist?. I see there was a protest last ssturday over the closure of Dr. Hennessey practise. Dont think many knew it was on not advertised from what i can see only lowry and shane lee appear to have turned up and publicized it on social media. Where weree the rest of them. They were all v quite on the post office issue too. Eddie Moran has done his usual disappearing act and will probably magically appear for the next local elections. Also never hear a peep out of noel coonan. Latest is thats now going into spar. At least the town is keeping the post office but would still do with been in a stand alone premises. Not as if there is a shortage of empty buildings
Nice to hear the promotion of the town on Tipp FM this morning. Town may have lost it council but there seems to be good motivation in those who have set up the Templemore Residents Association and the Sustainable Town Committee. Both looking for more people to get involved to help them meet their goals.
Like the rest of the country serious housing shortage. Anyone know what the latest is with the voluntary housing association and developing the old Tom Shofts site. Heard they aregoing to widen the park entrance with the development there
