The Office of Public Works (OPW) has responsibility on behalf of the State for managing and maintaining a substantial and complex estate of approximately 2,500 properties.
This extensive and diverse portfolio of State properties includes office accommodation for all Government Departments, the property estate for An Garda Síochána and numerous properties for many State Agencies. The portfolio also encompasses specialised spaces such as public offices, laboratories, and cultural institutions, in addition to warehouses, heritage properties, visitor centres, and sites.
There are a number of these types of properties owned by the OPW in County Carlow one of which is classified as a site. The site is located to the rear of Rathvilly Garda Station and is being prepared for disposal as it is surplus to State requirements.
