Local boutique to closeAnother high profile local business is closing its doors. La Carm boutique in Moate is set to cease trading today (Wednesday). A closing down sale has been ongoing in the shop at Main Street for some time. The Moate closure comes on foot of several others in the Athlone area in the hospitality sector in recent weeks and months. To the shock and disappointment of many, the popular Corner House Bistro closed for the final time on Saturday last.
