A MAN AND a woman in their 80s have been found dead at a house in Glounthaune village, seven kilometres east of Cork city. 

Gardaí in Mayfield responded to the scene yesterday evening. 

It is understood there is nothing to suggest foul play.

“Gardai attended the scene and two bodies were located in the house (one man and one woman aged in their eighties), both deceased,” a Garda spokesperson said.

“The scene is preserved for technical examination.

“No further information is available at this time.”

The coroner has been notified and the bodies of the deceased have been removed to Cork University Hospital for postmortem examinations, which will determine the course of the investigations.
