The border region between North Kilkenny and South Laois is characterised by unique karst limestone hydrology, domestic spring networks, and pristine river valleys feeding directly into the River Nore catchment. These waterways, fields, hedgerows, and upland habitats form a connected living landscape that supports homes, farms, wildlife, and generations of local memory.

When planning applications were submitted for 175m industrial turbine structures across our quiet townlands, local families joined together to ensure rigorous independent hydrological, acoustic, and legal scrutiny. Our committee is working to protect clean drinking water, residential health and well being, rural character, property prices, and the ecological corridors that make this region distinctive.

Seskin Preservation brings residents, landowners, trustees, and local supporters together to share evidence, fund specialist advice, and engage constructively with the planning process. We believe decisions about this landscape should be transparent, carefully assessed, and rooted in the long-term health of the people and places that call it home.
