A man has been charged with the murder a woman in West Waterford earlier this week.

33-year-old Finnegan ‘Finn’ Yowell, with an address of Old School House, Ticknock, Youghal, County Waterford, made no reply when charged with the murder of Noreen Daly.

Her body was discovered in her home in Ardsallagh, in the Clashmore Kinsalebeg area on Monday.

Solicitor Ken Cunningham requested Finn Yowell be medically and psychiatrically assessed.

He was granted legal aid, and was remanded in custody until next Tuesday, where he’ll appear before Clonmel District Court.
