Sraid Settlement OverviewAs outlined in the Offaly County Development Plan 20212027:

"Sraids are the smallest type of settlement in the hierarchy and their character reflects traditional building patterns with a loose collection of rural dwellings clustered around one or more focal points. Focal points may include existing rural houses around a crossroad or a community or social facility such as a shop, school or church. The strategy for these settlements is to facilitate a small number of additional dwellings and/or small enterprises to consolidate the existing pattern of development around the focal points and utilise existing services in the area. The Council supports housing development taking place within Sraids to act as a viable alternative to one-off housing in the open countryside."

Ballinamere is a sought-after rural residential location offering a peaceful countryside setting while remaining within easy reach of Tullamore Town and its full range of services including schools, shops, restaurants, healthcare facilities, and transport links.
