    This report describes the findings that were gathered in Tower & Cloghroe as part of the 15 step Collaborative Town Centre Health Check (CTCHC) Programme. The CTCHC Programme is being funded under Project Ireland 2040 and it is being conducted by the Heritage Council along with a variety of partners. The data collected will be used to inform future decisions for the area and it will also be used to deliver policies and plans from the Cork City Development Plan 2022-28. The CTCHC research for Tower and Cloghroe took place in 2021 and it was conducted by Masters in Planning and Sustainable Development students from University College Cork. Due to Covid restrictions at the time, the research focused extensively on these steps of the CTCHC Process: Landuse Survey & Vacancy, Footfall/Pedestrian Survey, and Survey Natural Desire Lines. Business surveys were undertaken in October 2021. Prior to site work the students virtually met with Alison Harvey co-ordinator of the CTCHC project in the Heritage Council and steering group members from Cork City Council for an overview of the project, process and place.
