The Co Cavan house where killer school-teacher Alan Hawe murdered his wife Clodagh and their three young boys has been demolished.
Alan Hawe, a deputy principal at Castlerahan National School, murdered his 39-year-old wife Clodagh and their three children - 13-year-old Liam, 11-year-old Niall and 6-year-old Ryan - at their home in Barconey, near Ballyjamesduff. Alan then took his own life.
The home that the family lived in was demolished earlier this week with a planned memorial garden to be built in its place. An application to demolish the house was lodged with county planners by Clodagh’s grieving mum Mary Coll, last year.
