An old hotel on the Main Street of Mallow has been placed on the Derelict Sites Register.
The former Central Hotel has fallen into disrepair since it closed in 2007, attracting anti-social behaviour and becoming an eyesore in the town centre.
The building could not be demolished because it was a listed building.
However, the County Council delisted it in December 2021 to enable its redevelopment.
The derelict site order notice stated that full redevelopment would be required to remove the property from the Derelict Sites Register.
