The north west town of Boyle can expect to see work commence of one of its largest regeneration projects early in the new year.
Work on the transformation of the Royal Hotel will see original features such as arched walls retained, but the building redeveloped for a new Enterprise Centre, exhibition space, information point and coffee dock.
Consultants and contractors are in place and are expected to commence work in January.
Local General election candidate Frank Feighan says the new facility will be a major boost to the town.
