There was a great show of community support as Clough Village welcomed the IPB Pride of Place judges on Friday, July 24.
Clough was selected to represent Laois in the Population 0-300 category of the IPB Pride of Place competition this year.
Competition judges Tom Dowling and Liam Hannaway were greeted by local volunteers, community groups and residents who brought the judges on a tour of the village.
Take a look through some of the photos from the big visit below.
