Kildare's sinking pub set to go to auction in the coming week


Roche's pub in Donadea will go under the hammer on Wednesday afternoon at an auction in the Glenroyal Hotel, and it will have a guide price of €350,000.
The property is built near Derryvarogue bog and is famed for its lopsided floors - but is structurally sound.
Locals have dubbed it the 'Leaning Pub of Donadea' in reference to the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy.
Roche's pub currently has excellent trade and has potential for further expansion into the food business.
The property includes lounge, middle bar, front bar, toilets, cold room, ancillary storage and rustic smoking patio area/beer garden.
The pub itself dates back to the mid 1800's.
It's also known as a venue for traditional music sessions and sports fans.
It's a firm favourite for the many day trippers who visit the nearby Donadea Forest Park.
The US Ryder Cup team supped pints at the pub in the run-up to the tournament at the K Club in 2006
