10 Minute Towns |Access i b i l i t y & Framework Repor t

Leisure Leisure services such as theatres, museums and libraries are generally within the centre of Ennis and therefore residents and visitors would typically travel to them by different modes of transport.

Sports and recreational facilities are scattered throughout Ennis. Although the walking catchment maps indicate that majority of residents are within 10 minutes’ walk of these facilities, sports fields would generally cater for groups of people with interests in specific sports or clubs. Therefore, people who use these facilities may travel longer distances and across town despite a local facility being available.

Figure 26 shows the leisure services located throughout Ennis.
