Plans to construct a crematorium in Shannon have moved a step closer.
Clare County Councillors have agreed that the local authority should sell a 1.3 acre site at Illaunamanagh which is set to be home to the first crematorium in the MidWest.
Businessman Jim Cranwell is to pay €140,000 for the site, and has been told to build the Crematorium within two years.
Planning permission has already been secured.
