An area at Cathedral Street, close to St. Aidan’s Cathedral, Enniscorthy, was closed to the public for a time today (Thursday), following the discovery of a ‘suspect device’ inside a residential property.

Gardaí and the Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal unit attended the scene.
The device was made safe and removed from the scene. The road has reopened.
“A cordon was put in place, The Irish Defence Forces Explosive Ordnance Disposal unit attended, and the device was made safe,” said An Garda Siochana in a statement.
It is understood the device was historical in nature.
