Councillors call for creation of Heritage Trail for Callan Reporter: '); '); The abundance of interesting sites in Callan would make an attractive heritage trail, a local councillor has proposed. Cllr Joe Lyons has suggested the trail could start from the Cherryfield famine graveyard, south of the town, continue through the town past the former workhouse and St Mary’s Abbey, into the new walking path in the Moat Field, and on into Westcourt. There are also other sites of interest that could be included. The many historic sites in Callan would make the trail a good attraction for the town, Cllr Lyons said, at the recent meeting of Callan Thomastown municipal district councillors.
