In a welcome development, Messrs Glynn & Sons, Kilrush, have announced that their steamers will now include Glin Pier as a stop on the journey to and from Limerick. This news will be particularly pleasing to the local farming community, who currently face the inconvenience of transporting their pigs to Tarbert Island for shipment to Limerick. With the addition of Glin as a port of call, farmers will now have a more accessible and convenient option for transporting their livestock.

Although the decision to include Glin as a stop may have been somewhat delayed, the shepherds and shopkeepers of Glin are expected to provide considerable support to Messrs Glynn’s steamer service. The introduction of this service will undoubtedly bring benefits to the local economy, providing a more efficient and cost-effective means of transportation for agricultural produce.

This development reflects Messrs Glynn & Sons’ commitment to meeting the needs of the farming community and improving the accessibility of transportation options in the region. The company can anticipate a positive response from the residents of Glin, who will now have greater ease in transporting their goods, thereby enhancing the overall efficiency of the local agricultural sector.
