A shopping centre built at a cost of over €20m, with 450-space multistorey car park, 16 vacant shops and one rented, seven offices, and a restaurant space, is for sale for €950,000.
Charleville Town Centre was built on land bought in 2006 for €4m, and opened in 2008. The town’s population is less than 4,000.

UPDATE:
Yes, it’s Dublin’s original Custom House, by Thomas Burgh [click to enlarge], on Essex Quay and built in 1707. It was pulled down in 1781 as ‘unsafe’ to make way for Gandon’s version.

You decide.
Both are Healy good.
The first episode of a new web series by Neil Patrick ‘Barney Stinson’ Harris on the Nerdist channel. New episodes every Tuesday.
Here’s the obligatory behind-the-scenes feature.
Heather Perrin, a 61-year-old woman born into a modest background where third-level education was not an option, one who “pulled herself up by the bootstraps” to progress from legal secretary to qualified solicitor at the age of 31, and to a seat on the bench at 57, is now consigned to An Dóchas women’s prison.
Prisoners there now routinely double up in rooms designed as private singles, and sleep in “hard bunk beds with thin duvets”, in the words of one source.
A woman known for her liking for good jewellery and prestigious car marques, one for whom her public face and dignity were perceived to be particularly important, will be reduced to purchasing stock from the prison shop on a stipend of less than €2 a day.
However, one of the biggest challenges she faces in prison, perhaps, will be the known fact of her former occupation, a factor acknowledged by Judge Mary Ellen Ring.
Judge not, lest ye be etc.
