The historic lighthouse keeper’s cottages at Loop Head are set to undergo renovation works as part of an overall project plan for the sustainable development of the popular West Clare visitor attraction.
The cottages, which are in existence since around 1850, will undergo repairs to the existing roof and sash windows with electrical works made safe internally.
Clare County Council has contracted Custy Construction to carry out the works.

The lighthouse itself, which dates back to the 1670s, has been closed since 2020 to facilitate a large-scale renovation project and the local authority says plans are underway to submit the design of an enhanced visitor attraction within its compound to An Bord Pleanála.
