Fermoy Voted Cleanest Town In Ireland
North Cork town, Fermoy has been voted the cleanest town in Ireland according to a survey by Irish Business Against Litter.
The survey also found Ireland's towns and city centres are clean - but litter is on the increase in disadvantaged areas all over the country.
The results of the IBAL summer survey show Fermoy in Cork was the cleanest of the 40 towns and cities surveyed.
But Mahon and Cork's northside found themselves at the foot of the table along with Dublin's North Inner City and Galway City.
Spokesperson Conor Horgan says more-mixed housing may be the long-term solution to our urban litter problem.
