Elfordstown Earthstation is a ground station located near Midleton, County Cork, in the south of Ireland. It is operated by the National Space Centre Ltd and is Ireland's only and Europe's most western teleport.
The Elfordstown site was originally commissioned by Telecom Éireann in association with Eutelsat and came into service in 1984, with the purpose of broadcasting voice, data and television services across Europe and between the United States and the continent. However, with the laying of transatlantic fibre cables, starting with PTAT-1 in 1989 , the 32m antenna had become redundant by 1997 and was left idle for a number of years.
