Park at the location that you are bringing the cows to. Walk to the place you are bringing the cows from. Remove the cows, close the gate, walk them to their destination. Get in your car and drive home.

Not possible. There is no house or any where to park there.

I really think people are not understanding the size of this road, and we are literally moving over and back between 2 fields.

Anyway, we have done what we can for him and that’s that

Probably the most practical solution here. Given how narrow the road seems it would not be safe for traffic to try to move past animals while they are on the road. Also given the OP says 3-4 people are involved perhaps the other 2-3 could be dropped at the starting point, the driver could wait at that point until the animals approach then move on to the destination and open that gate in advance.

Or park in the other field when the ground is firm.

A safe work plan is needed to carry out this procedure.

The road probably needs to be closed to traffic for the work period.
Gardai clearance would be needed to close the road.
Advance notice would need to be given to the other road users to enable them to make arrangements for the closure period.

The Gardai can establish where the work vehicles can be safely parked during the works.

The Gardai can also establish if the farmer needs to provide work vehicle parking on his land to minimise the road closure time.

Then again maybe the farmer could avoid all of this if he carries out his work without antagonizing his neighbours.

Its only half a dozen times a year at most. I'm sure if given notice some of the droving experts here would be happy to drop down and ensure a safe, expeditious and dung-free manoeuvre is executed. ;)
