Although coal is not so widely used in recent years, Suttons Coal on Monaghan Road is still open for business.  Suttons in Cork was acquired by Bord na Mona back in 1998 who “now imports and packages coal at six locations around the country namely; Foynes, Dublin, Cork, Dundalk, Sligo and Galway.”.  I didn’t think there was that much of a market left for coal!
